Sidelines at Wimbledon leads me towards Hawkeye but don't see a connection to royalty

Yup. stick to your barley water and recap through the thread. He had to do his bit in three days each time remember and  don't forget that our character here was a pretty gross sight when faced by the many incarnations of the bean.

Namesake at Wimbledon (rally) and Royal connection leads me to think Sir Walter Raleigh....did he bring the 'bean' to England???

Mr Bean is Rowan Atkinson and i don't think he has royal connections but the pretty gross sight i can see in his facial expressions. So the only connection i can make immediately is Archbishop or Dr Rowan or whatever his title is (not into that sort of thing) but how that ties in with barley water and Wimbledon i don't know.......what i do know is i ain't giving up just yet.....may have to go think a while as i find another I-spy.....
