answer contains the name of a bird.
In 1942 she was stranded on a Desert Island with a book and a luxury [4.3]
Any help please

Please can anyone make any suggestion for this??

does this have something to do with desert island discs formed in 1942?

possibly but i cant find anyone who fits!!And believe me I have looked.

Yes, I've had a good look too and can't find anything DID related. The luxury and book weren't added to the series until much later. The only woman I can find who appeared in the first series was Beatrice Lillie and although you can find tiercel in the middle of her name its not 4,3

i've tried finding a list for this year but it dosn't seem to be lsited anywhere

Is the bird a Roc by any chance, there was a french woman with roc in her name but stranded hundreds of years earlier and a longer name. I know this isnt right but it may ring some bells.a

Just been reading a book and an Eden Roc cafe was mentioned so I put that in search, Arthur C Clarke wrote a book called Castaway so think it may have something to do with that. I havent time to follow this up but if you get the right answer Id be pleased to know.

carole

the castaway in the book was never named

I wasnt reading the Castaway book, just a romantic novel and Eden Roc just cropped up
