E.N.'s perfect run finally comes to an end as he misses a Sheep. But it won't damage him too much as there was a decent variety of answers for this question, with the lowest Sheep we've had thus far:

Honestly, I thought Dumas would've taken this. But au contraire; it's a huge Sheep for Hugo.

Time for some musique classique now.

Did any of these pieces inspire you while your were composing your entries? 













Or perhaps you preferred something a bit more modern?

Given we had a super moon recently, it's perhaps appropriate that Debussy is the big Sheep here.
No love for Offenbach, despite having arguably the most "French" instrumental piece (i.e. the Can-Can dance!)

RE: MOUTON - Le Reveal - Homer J. Fong - 14-08-2022

After 9 questions, E.N. retains his lead and it's now a five-point advantage. Shane has crept up to second, with Witchy in third. Leggy has fallen back a bit after over-indulging on Proust.

The ghosts of Jules Verne and Maurice Ravel curse Kol to hold the Spoon.

If you went with Édith Piaf....then you should ne regrette rien! 
It isn't the biggest Sheep we've seen though; a lot of different answers were given here and we get quite a few Aces as a result, as well as some big names not chosen at all! 

And while there are no wrong answers in Sheep....I'm not sure how the Canadian Celine Dion would feel being on this list!  Tongue (French Canadian tbf....but not French-French!)

SCIENCE, BITCH!

Antoine Lavoisier, giant of chemistry;
René Descartes, giant of mathematics and philosophy;
Blaise Pascal, giant of mathematics and physics;

These are just some of the names that none of you heathens chose.

This one was a two-horse race;

RE: MOUTON - Le Reveal - Homer J. Fong - 14-08-2022

The tightest round so far but Madame Curie just about comes out on top. If one person had changed their answer to Pasteur, we'd have had a tied-Sheep.

Marie Skłodowska, as I'm sure you all know, was Polish....but she did become a naturalised French citizen following her marriage to Pierre Curie. And besides; no wrong answers in Sheep!

We've been too kind on France thus far, but now it's time for us to boo them as we remember that they were colonial bastards just like the British. (And others)

Which French colony did you opt to remember here?

12 down, 8 to go.
E.N. retains his lead but it's been shaved to two points following his Daft choice on the music round.
Shane holds onto second place despite losing a few points with Algeria.

A big gap back to Lorcan in third; is it a two-horse race to win?

Time to remember Napoleon now.
I was originally going to ask for a military defeat...but I figured I'd just get 22 Waterloos!

So let's see where his most well known victory lay instead?

RE: MOUTON - Le Reveal - Homer J. Fong - 14-08-2022

If we were playing Heeps or Peehs, I know at least one smart-alec would have picked Brazil here. But in the world of Sheep, it's Germany that wins out.

There were actually a few clues in the questions themselves (and the accompanying gif!) that @ShaneU , @nothing and @aaronjennings may (or may not) have picked up on; if so, it was alas to no avail.

@E.N. stretches his lead to seven points.

RE: MOUTON - Le Reveal - Homer J. Fong - 14-08-2022

If you've stayed with the Reveal this long, chances are you are in desperate need of a drink. So it's time for some wine.
Which region did you choose?

RE: MOUTON - Le Reveal - Homer J. Fong - 14-08-2022

Of course, it's not *really* Sheep unless it comes from the Mouton region of France. Otherwise it's just 'sparkling woolly farm animal'. 

Nevertheless, is it time for @E.N. to break out the Champagne?
