Competition Winners

Thanks to everyone who entered our Advent Calendar Fan Art competition.

You had to identify which film Sean Connery (for it was he) was starring in for each picture. Adam assumed that you would find out the answers in the same way he had found the pictures: do a Google Image Search for "Sean Connery fan art", find the pictures in the listings, then visit the pages to check the film.

No one did this. Instead, a complicated game of Mastermind (the peg version) ensued, with multiple entries trying to cover all possible combinations.


The answers:


DR NO by DixieKong86 (source: http://dixiekong86.deviantart.com/art/Sean-Connery-368845216)


ROBIN AND MARIAN by PresterJohn1 (source: http://presterjohn1.deviantart.com/art/Sean-Connery-151246637)


THE LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN by DrakenaDestroyer (source: http://drakenadestroyer.deviantart.com/art/Sean-Connery-13312850)

So to the winners:


Ross Saunders got 1 and 3 right but not 2
Peter Tisi was the only person to get 2 right, but hedged his bets on the others!

Discretion precludes me from saying what you win, as the people who gave us those unwanted gifts may read the blog.
Presentation will take place in the New Year at a specially convened dining event.
Happy New Year!

Advent Calendar 2025

1st December 2025

Hello! We've sort of lost count, but think the first Advent Calendar was back in 2003, the Internet Archive Wayback Machine says it looked like this: Of course all the links are dead, but the thing it has in common with this year's is that it is still coded in HTML, probably the last thing I will ever rely on coding for. Now it looks like this: Happy Advent! We have gone for the Bonne Maman JAM Calendar again this year, after leaving it too late last year and it selling out at both Fenwick and Selfridges! We get a fresh pot of jam every day to enjoy with our tartines and Ovomaltines. We also have the Domino's "Merry Crustmas" leaflet, and a MUJI calendar we'll show you later in the month. Do let us know what you are opening every day! You can leave a message below, or email us your ideas and suggestions for future days at robotmaths@outlook.com Have a great day!
