    May be 47. We are at cross purposes on the Mr Selfridge one, Chris! It wasn't supposed to be anything to do with the Iceland one (I just had a bit of a copy and paste moment!) I think the op came up with Mr Selfridge but no idea what the clue is as don't watch it!

    Edit - sorry just got it Sell Fridge Doh!!! Sorry. I couldn't work out why they were being put together. I'll leave the rest to you!!!!!

    The Spiral Staircase is a 1946 film which will be shown on BBC2 on Christmas Day - http://www.bbc.co.uk/search/schedule/?q=spiral%20staircase

    Which could make Dr Who - 50

    Or it could be National Theatre 50 - The NT had its 50th anniversary in October/November with a series of TV screenings

    Well done! Looking closely at the 50, it could be a balloon in the tardis colour.

    Another idea for the dancers on the roof - could it be Dancing on the Edge?

  • Not sure about the Spiral staircase (again!). Text from mag is "We've hidden clues to 50 TV programmes from 2013". I'm not sure a 1946 film counts. But that would also mean it can't be Dr Who as that was in the 2012 Christmas special.

    Don't know if it helps but there is a TV series called "Spiral", it's a French detective thing on BBC4: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0072wk9/episodes/guide

    Strictly Come Dancing and Dancing on the edge are two seperate programmes (Craig Revel Horwood in the picture is a judge Strictly) so thats 48 answers. The morse code actually spells out Endeavour
