Lukka'sma May 2nd, 2007, 09:00 AM So here is a short bio, as always no google search, not fair to those who play legit. I will check back tonight to see who is the first to guess. I think I made this one too easy though.
_______________________________________________
Born on March 22, 1948 in South Kensington in London, England. His mother was a piano teacher. His younger brother is a world-famous cellist.
He was knighted in 1992
He is ranked the 87th richest Briton in the Sunday Times Rich List 2006 with an estimated wealth of £700m. He also owns much of Watership Down, the down made famous by Richard Adams's novel of the same name.
He is an art collector with a passion for Victorian art. An exhibition of works from his collection was presented at the Royal Academy in 2003.
He has been married three times and has five children.
HunterXHunter May 2nd, 2007, 09:05 AM My guess would be that Richard Bramson guy that owns Virgin
Puppyluv May 2nd, 2007, 09:15 AM Hmm the first person I thought of was Andrew Lloyd Webber, but I can't remember if he was knighted before he was ennobled... if he was then my guess is him. If he wasn't then my guess is...oh I don't know, Anthony Hopkins.
Aimster May 2nd, 2007, 10:15 AM Sean Connery?
Shamrock May 2nd, 2007, 01:13 PM hmmm..definitely not too easy, Lukka'smama.:D
Paul McCartney? The famous brother doesnt sound right, though..:confused:
I'll have to come back with another guess..;)
hazelrunpack May 2nd, 2007, 01:23 PM Well, if it's not Paul McCartney, Shamrock, I'm out of guesses :p But I'm not too well-versed in this sort of stuff. :o
So who is Richard Bramson and which virgin does he own? :eek: :o
badger May 2nd, 2007, 01:32 PM Richard Adams?
Shamrock May 2nd, 2007, 01:36 PM lol, Hazel!:laughing: Richard Bramson own Virgin Records, must be one of the richest Britons.
With fame and that kind of wealth, I'm thinking it must be musician or actor.
But Paul McCartney is from Liverpool, I believe.:o so that cant be right.
Guess number two - Mick Jagger.
hazelrunpack May 2nd, 2007, 03:14 PM :o hazel is so pathetic she's never even heard of Virgin Records. Or this Bramson guy... sigh I gotta start gettin' out more... :p
rainbow May 2nd, 2007, 03:26 PM It's not Paul McCartney or Mick Jagger and I don't think it's Sean Connery either. With all the musical connections my guess would be Andrew Lloyd Webber.
Prin May 2nd, 2007, 03:36 PM Somebody named William? :D
jesse's mommy May 2nd, 2007, 04:25 PM Great game and I do know the answer. One person got it right above.
Andrew Lloyd Webber
Lukka'sma -- do another! This is fun!
rainbow May 2nd, 2007, 04:44 PM Great game and I do know the answer. One person got it right above.
Andrew Lloyd Webber
Lukka'sma -- do another! This is fun!
WOO HOO ....but, you mean two people got it right. :D
Hunter's_owner May 2nd, 2007, 05:51 PM Well, if it's not Paul McCartney, Shamrock, I'm out of guesses :p But I'm not too well-versed in this sort of stuff. :o
So who is Richard Bramson and which virgin does he own? :eek: :o
Lmao Hazel, (I don't know who he is either, but your reply made me laugh a lot:laughing:
My guess is that he owns Virgin Records, but that is just a guess:shrug:
rainbow May 2nd, 2007, 05:59 PM LOL, you guys....It's not Richard Bramson, it's Richard Branson. He not only has Virgin Records but an airline plus many other companies. He even had his own TV reality show where he gave away a million bucks but I can't remember the name of it.
