Really good one Damo. My only tiny quibble would be - could he be considered a religious figure? Genuine question
Yeah that was difficult. The question was 'religious figure/leader', I think to have said yes would have been more misleading than no.

My other problem was 'Great Britain' due to when he lived. I was actually dreading the question "Was he British?"
I tried to make that easy for you by selecting "Great Britain" due to it being a pre-1900 figure.

Brainstorm: other than Blackbeard I also considered Alexander Selkirk but given both are sailors rather than soldiers I’m not confident in them. I am struggling to think of a solider, involved in politics but not a politician.

Think this could be one where I kick myself.

I'm thinking possibly someone connected to the English Civil War....

Was this man born after 1750?

Was he knighted?
4 left before these.

Do you still want to ask these?
No thank you.

Am I allowed to guess again or not?
Yes

Brainstorm: I’m thinking of pirates, possibly Blackbeard. What do you think?
