First up ia a saint.
Above is Saint Paschal, patron saint of both sheep and cooking.
I don't think that's a great combination: it looks like that poor lamby is going straight in the pot.
Brigid sheeps hard here. Don't be cross if you didn't pick her.

Bookies now. Did you sheep here? How much ya wanna bet on it?
I honestly couldn't think of a saint other than Saint nick!
It's almost a whitewash for Paddy. Nothing has obviously gone for an independent bookies, not many of them left anymore.

I love Liz's answer! But was it ever going to be a Sheep??
Oh sorry of course you are. There's nobody else here.
He's had a long and varied career but what did you think was his standout movie?

I've gone full on spoon action!
A tie between the mob and heist classics. Suprised Raging Bull aced. Nothing goes for an obscure one. Nothing..

Going well so far. Nothing to worry about. I did briefly think about Jolly Old Saint Nick, but kept with Bridgy.
Even in animation Di Nero is typecast as the mob boss
I think foggys are still feeling a bit Christmassy! Robin sheeps hard. I reckoned wren would get a few more votes but that's sheep for you.

I did briefly consider Taxi Driver, and, very briefly, Meet the Parents!
It's all tied at the top. Sawduck is climbing away from nothing down below.

Is Nothing on a mission? Baby Penguin, though...their best answer yet!

I am! Spooooooooon!
Now what was next?

Aha! that's it: an ABBA song. Will the winner take it all?
Will this sheep be another Waterloo for Necro?
And erm, it's getting dark, does your mother know that you're out?
Not much between the top three answers here.

I had thought of Waterloo initially - didn't realise it was going to be that close!
I'm raging that Raging Bull was not a top contender, De Niro excellent as Jake
