  3. Did you fall to the ground and miss?

Yes, because it cracked me up. :slight_smile:

Lorna Doone? I know it’s a cookie, but I don’t know the book.
DQ
I am not Arthur Dent.

Correct on King David.
#2 is Dr John Dolittle - his subjects thought “Do-little” to be a very poor name for him, and gave him a better one (apparently they had trouble pronouncing his first name).
#3 is Danny Dunn, from the kids’ book series by … um … whatshisface. (You, know - that guy, down near the tail end of the alphabet.)

TV personality Durward Kirby lost his suit, due to the rules regarding parody. Danny Deever was hung in Rudyard Kipling’s eponymous poem.

I’ll wait on my DQs.

Dammit, this is upsetting, because I know what you’re talking about, but I can’t actually answer the questions. 3 DQs because I’ve fallen down on my graphic novel reading job.
