I mean - it's a bit like crap impressionists announcing who they're just about to do; if you need to label who they are, you might as well melt them down and start again...

Is that Prince William with Jimmy Saville knocking at the door face, Anders Breivik and Maradona far right?

I remember going to Wookey Hole as a kid, and being confronted with a whole wall of wax heads who looked only vaguely like who they were supposed to.

What’s that display supposed to be? Jeffrey Dahmer’s fridge?

I’m pretty sure the guitarist is Will Gompertz.

I'm going with Bill Nighy

The guitarist is supposed to be Andres Segovia, I think.

Deffo Segovia (source: been playing Classical guitar for 40+ years)_{yes yes and boy are my arms tired.} He's a hero in the Classical/Spanish guitar world. He was ancient when he finally stopped performing; judging from how his waxwork actually looks better than the others (I knew it were he instantly), I suspect it might actually just be him, preserved in wax.

Although considering, it's irksome that they've not got him holding the guitar correctly (yeah, that's what stuck out for me, considering everything else on display here...)

Didn't he have 2 deformed fingers on his left hand from a fire? Why haven't they melted his (Wax) hand a bit? Too much bother?

I would like to have £5 on it being Reginald Christie

I'm still convinced it's Bill Nighy as Churchill on guitar.

(sounds like a lost line from the Intro and the Outro - Churchill on guitar, Yasser Arafat (aka Ringo) on keyboards & Hitler on vibes, nice.

Who would have thought that putting glasses on the Lionel Blair head would create a perfectly-serviceable Lou Reed figure?
