    This needed more pop culture to tie it to the period, like “disco dance” or “Elvis song.”

I’m very uncertain as to whether nos. 1 and 4 even fit the question (I’ll organise a British-based Feud one of these days!), and I struggled with number 9- here’s hoping a few more Beautiful Mind fans come along!

ETA: I see that no. 4 should be OK (I nearly put Al Gore but the Feud is for 1950-1999, right?), no. 1, not so much. Thank goodness I changed Jay Leno to Johnny Carson! And chaoticbear, pretty sure Keynes and Curie were way before 1950, good try though! Did Curie win the Peace prize as well as Physics?
