I have guesstimated the end date.

The prize is a print of a lovely shot of Richard Burton and Liz Taylor, from February 1963, on the set of Cleopatra. He's doing a costume test or something, as he's wearing his normal trousers and shoes whilst sporting a toga and breastplate up top. Liz is laughing and drinking in fishnet stockings and a furry hat just out of the way of the camera, which is being operated by Joseph L Mankiewicz.

You can win this slice of film history in a beautiful print struck from the Getty archive original negative. All you have to do is listen to the show as I go on a sneak tour of the exhibition with gallery director Louise Garczweska. We stop in front of a giant photo of four men and I remark that this would make the most unlikely but most glamorous back four in English football. Who are the men in question?

Send your answers to [EMAIL="film.weekly@guardian.co.uk"]film.weekly@guardian.co.uk[/EMAIL] and you can win Burton and Taylor and Cleopatra forever. It really is a fantastic prize, worth nearly £400.

Answer: Bobby Moore, Jimmy Greaves, Yul Brynner and Sean Connery (thanks to Lurkio & toomanykids below for the answer!)

There's also a picture of The Who (four men) on page five, but can't see the football connection.......
