Very tough one. Never heard of him until he was guessed, and I expect few outside of UK will have heard of him, but on reading about him, I'm surprised I'd never heard his name as I certainly know his music. Also, very clever to follow on from the subject of the last game. Good game!
Thank you.

Jonathan King.
Yes.

Follows from the last game. Tom Jones did not go to the moon.
Okay!

This was a challenging one.

None that I'm aware of but that's pointless to point out as I said I had already eliminated him on other grounds so didn't get that far. My goal is just to open up ideas for the kinds of people we might be looking for.

Focus on the goal more, jamie, and less on scoring points against me.
Dude I have nothing against you.

I'm an asshole with everyone ;-)
True, that :-D

I'd be surprised if Lord Attenborough's son hadn't committed a few crimes along the way, though. Their kind usually have. And they did find a woman's skull in his back garden a few years back...
I am fairly confident it's Jonathan King, though.

1. He's a British person who is still alive.
2. He has a criminal record.
3. He is primarily known as a music producer, singer, and sex offender, but he also wrote songs and has written for various newspapers and magazines.
4. He appeared multiple times on Top Of The Pops as a presenter (as well as a couple of times as a musician), but occasionally presenting Top Of The Pops was not the initial source of his fame.

My first thought was David Attenborough, but he very much IS famous for being on TV. Same for all of the guys from Monty Python.

The comment about writing "in different forms" led me to suspect a songwriter. The age fits well with the British Invasion era. I'm swirling around possible solutions, but everyone I come up with has either been on The Simpsons (Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards), or holds world records (Andrew Lloyd Webber). These people also did not "present" a TV program, although they were on many, and all made films.

I've asked the last two questions; someone else ask question 20 (but be careful!).

So it's a living British man who is associated with writing in various forms, and has been on television, who is generally somewhat notorious, and who has a criminal record.

(Damo how many questions left?)
