    I think the "Vicnent" is "Fake or Fortune". It must refer to a fake Van Gogh painting.

    I'm thinking maybe the sandcastle could be "Scarborough".

    Also, the lights above Catherine the Great are in the shape of the Thames from the Eastenders logo...too much of a long shot?

    A huge thanks to everyone who posts competitions:beer:
  • I take your point about the drain cover and the Christmas tree being in the original Alamy stock picture, and therefore excluded, but there is still planet earth underneath the tree ...

    I am writing for myrtleturtle, who suggests that the lifebelt could be 'Saving Lives at Sea' and the planet under the Christmas tree 'Our Planet'

    They do look like the Thames, but it also looks like one of the rivers in this pictiure from Earth from Space. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p072n2zr

    What an answer, could be correct, especially with there being an apartment called The Sandcastle Apartment - http://www.thesandcastleapartment.co.uk/

  • I'm still not sure about the sandcastle, nor Vicnent, and they would make up the fifty. So how does what looks like a black-and-white snake below the dancers' feet fit in?

    Just looking at the earth under the tree, it shows Africa, could that be Africa With Ade Adepitan - https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m0002fcf/africa-with-ade-adepitan-series-1-episode-1

  • It might well be Africa, but it's the same view of Earth as some of the hanging globes on the right. I've put 'Our Planet' for that one, but I'm sure many other programmes would be equally valid.


    I take back my note of a green globe under the 2034 - it's just the monster's hand against a glowing sky, in the picture that Google Images shows in response to "Stranger Things Monster".
  • Could the white Christmas Tree be the Undateables, a Christmas tree got a coat of white paint by Richard?
  • I would think not, as the tree was white in the original picture, although it has been made more white to match the snow painted on the ground. Also that would make 51 clues.
