Very widely known person, although some may be more familiar with the name then the person.

I'm sorry. I don't even have a clue what to ask next, so I'll give up. So unless someone else steps in it looks like the first win for the QM and we may have reached the end of this game.

Is this person named in this wikipedia page? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category: ... presenters

6. If the question master remains undefeated three times in a row, on the third time they must either pass it to a person of their choice, or the first volunteer takes over.

He’s not.

Feel free for everybody to toss out a last guess before we call it.

Just to help get on the right path, he’s an ‘actor’ and ‘children’s entertainer’ using similar perspective as you would if you assigned these terms to Jim Henson.

No idea. Walt Disney ?
