Did you play a mathematician from the planet of Traken on Doctor Who ?
Did you end your days keeping bees on the Sussex Downs?
Did a sudden attack of blindness make you change your name and completely alter your life?
Correct on Sherlock Holmes. 1 was referring to Nyssa of Traken, played by Sarah Sutton (Sorry, EH , I had thought you were a Whovian; it’s not a fair question if you’re unfamiliar with the show.) 3 was Saul of Tarsus, who was famously struck blind on the road to Damascus, then changed his name to Paul and founded Christianity.

Dunno, not Ben Stiller, and not Salieri.
And no worries, SMV , but I’m not a Whovian. I’ve seen bits and pieces over the years, but never a single complete show.

I think I do too… except that I’m racking my brains to remember her last name. Tip-of-the-tongue kind of thing.
SunUp - think of the big blue guy from Monsters, Inc. Very common Irish name. Or the guy that wouldn’t show Elvis from the waist down.
Dingdingding! Yes, indeed, I am Helen Keller’s beloved teacher and friend,
