QUESTION 359 f : No Captivity!

Personality...?
Fairly straightforward again.
Not as obscure as 359 d, I'm sure you'll agree :)

QUESTION 359 e : The ONLY APPROPRIATE title. Sitter.

Which historical personality? :P

Excuse the standard.

Question 359.d: treetise

connect to a person

picture 2 is rather obscure, but pic 1 is the biggest clue to the person. its what caused us all problems since 5th std in one of the most hatest subjects, for me atleast

Question 359.c : Horseplay

connect them all

and give the story behind the pictures as well

the connect is simple, but i want the story

i excluded a vital picture, which will give it all away
but i want

1) Alternate name for whats depicted in pic 1

2) What is pic 2 commonly known as

3)pic 3 is a hint to pic 4 (try identifying the place is you can)

and pic 4 is the icing on the cake, what does it depict?

Going for the theme?

Two up. By this slightly unconventional format, NEITHER Q MAY HAVE ANYTHING TO DO with the overall theme :)
all the same, they might..
I suggest you wait for another q. Anyway, your choice! Big points at stake!!

QUESTION 359 b : Alarm! They sold the Horse!!

Identify the mythical hero portrayed in the two pictures.
Battle commander.
There's an epic written about him too..

The pictures have enough clues, I think!

Question 359.a:Theme Name: Jokes Apart; Name- the big fillip

(a)


(b)


(c)

Connect the pictures

Picture a is what got X in trouble, resulting in picture B

Picture c is what people describe as his final revenge, or act of defiance

Give an explanation and identify X

(Identifying X is easy, but you'll only get the points for the full connect ans explantion)

THEME ROUND 2!

BACK WITH ANOTHER THEME WEEK!
It's to start on Friday.
But.... with a slight change in the format.

-> We'll post like eight questions.
-> But our grand connect IS NOT related to all 8!

-> Any FOUR random questions could be the ones which give you the theme.

Example.
Say, the answers to our eight questions are
1) Picasa, 2) TinEye, 3) Bill Gates, 4) YouTube, 5) Android, 6) Norton Antivirus, 7) Larry Page, 8) IBM

Right, observe carefully. In those 8 answers, you'll see 4 random ones with a definite connect.
In the above example,

1) PICASA, 4) YOUTUBE, 5) ANDROID and 7) LARRY PAGE
Connect- GOOGLE!!
So, in this case, answers to Questions 1, 4, 5 and 7 were the questions which gave us the connect!
Hope you understood!
Cheers.
