    Just as an aside. I got this in late 1963 from our local BP station that had the Bluebird on display on its Australian cities tour after its failed attempt at the land speed record in Lake Eyre in South Australia earlier in May that year. I think I paid a shilling from my newspaper round money to own it - big money then. And my old man had to fill up the tank of his Zephyr as a condition of sale.

    There are some things I hold onto for dear life and this is one of them... :D

    A person well known (in hirsute circles) for a king-size achievement. Name of the person and what they are known for. Photo would be good.

    May be a 7.5/10 on the Rebus scale of difficulty - we will soon find out. :)

    edit: The images were not correctly placed to represent the first, middle and surname - apologies. Should make it a little easier to crack.

    Same theme as @blubarb ’s ‘Bluebird’ puzzle.

    You’re looking for a name, and a film. The person is the subject of the film.
