Okay, so influenza and Rome. Now the other one presumably is a leftover from Calamari? |

I'm willing to go with King as the third on the basis I don't have a better guess. |

We should start with influenza I reckon, then Rome and let's see where we are after that. |

Wait, you do? Pretty sure the rules have a "weekends don't count" clause for the forfeit. And I'm not too concerned about that anyway. |

24hr timeout was all I saw, but I didn't exactly examine them. |

Quote: 1. 24 hours without pointing or giving a clue opens up the opposing team to forcing a pass. If the last clue was given/guessed >23:59 hours ago and the opposing team posts something pointing this out then the offending team effectively passes. The hours between 8pm Friday - 8am Monday do not count against the 24 hours. Not that I'd be picky about enforcement, even without that clause. That's a set of rules I cut & pasted from BoardGameGeek. |

That was good fun, and not too taxing. I think DavPaz should explain his clues now  I’m still stuck on one and I had the answers in front of me.Dunkirk was a risk for me as it wasn’t really ‘England’ but the only single word war films that I could think of with British soldiers were that, Zulu (which being set so far away I thought made it more risky) and Dambusters, and I am 99% sure that it was a specifically Scottish squadron in that, which I thought would work against us. |

I was stumped to honest and "Dunkirk" was an amazing clue to start with. Calamari was a "rome" clue, believe it or not

See, I thought calamari = link because calamari rings COULD be like links of a chain, but honestly when I saw what was left of the other team’s words I decided to chance the last couple of rounds as strong single word rounds. |
