Good job, **DLR**! I was thinking earlier it might be Ham the Astrochimp, but I think someone already asked about him. Previous IQs: Did Peter O’Toole play you in two different movies? - Yes, Henry II, in _Becket_ and _The Lion in Winter_ Were you the victor of the Battle of Agincourt? - Yes, Henry V Is it thought by some historians that your health problems later in life might have been related to a bad fall you once took? - Henry VIII, who was once unhorsed and seriously concussed in a jousting match Henry x3! On to K. IQs: Were you, perhaps unfairly, portrayed as the bad guy in _Breaker Morant_? Did you play a plucky female reporter in a late Seventies movie? Was he calling you “about the bomb, Dmitri,” the _hydrogen_ bomb? ---
