    I'd agree on the Polling Station sign being something to do with the Election Coverage (there was alot of it on the news this year).

    Inbetweeners - The pub sign with 3 trees - same as their school uniform

    The mountain in the background could this be "71 Degrees north"? That ITV one show about the celebs, I didn't watch it so be great for someone to confirm.
    Also behind the woman from Merlin in the window is that Downton Abbey??
    THANK YOU ALL COMPETITON POSTERS!!

  • the beetle looks like it's wearing John Lennon glasses - wasn't there a biopic about John Lennon - something about a lonely boy?

    It also looks like it's wearing a fig leaf, which made me think Adam - something to do with Adam and the ants?

    I think the beatles one is more likely though...

    I agree with scungybear about the lennon beetle/beatle - but the programme was called Lennon Naked (hence the fig leaf) - see here
