Answers to Three Musketeers

The answers are :

1. The connection is Sherlock Holmes. (From top left: Lord Swaraj Paul who is famously called Baron of Baker Street, Baker Street being the place where the fictitious Holmes lived; Scotland Yard whose criminal database is known as Home Office Large Major Enquiry System(HOLMES); Royal Society of Chemistry, Holmes was the first and probably only fictional character to be inducted; Strand Magazine where it was published for the first time.)

2. Lady Kalla, a single edition watch designed by Vacheron Constantin, given as special wedding gift to the late Princess Diana. Carved from 18-carat white gold, the watch was made of 108 emerald-cut, perfectly matched diamonds, with 26 more on the dial, adding up to 30 carats of diamonds with 3,172 facets. It cost $500,000, and it is obviously worth a lot more now. Anyone wants to buy!!!

The TRUTH-SEEKERS for this round are:
Sandipan Chakravarty - 2
Tirumal Chamarti - 2
Anubhav chatterjee - 1
Abhishek Sahay - 2
Tathagata - 3 (Early bird)

Way to go quizzers. Check out the next quiz in my post later today.
