6. The Four Lovers
- Clue: The Four... (something else)

im going for UK 1970s/80s punk band Four Skins....LOL. yes, they actually were a band....a band of dickheads from all accounts!

Clutching at straws here, I can see.

No, not the Four Skins. This was a much earlier group, and they were the subject of a fairly recent hit theatre production, which has probably played in a theatre near you.

Answers to the remaining ones in the morning.
