Top solo scorer was 14 when we did it - and that was actually between two of us. Eventually we got 24 as a team

Here's the thing: If you know one you know one, if you don't you won't. So I'm putting the ones I know, a number that can easily be beaten:1 3 4 5 6 9 10 11 14 16 18 20 21 22 23 24 25

18 total.

7 probably

19 total

if you've got 9 you really should be able to work out 8 from how it fits with the theme. Once you have the theme you know there are a limited number of answers that have to be in there somewhere (20, in fact, iirr)

 

[JuanTwoThree]

8

Total 20

I suppose the rest could be got at cryptically, but I'm sticking.

3 is wrong. And Hall is included n Challenge so don’t need the spurious sponsor.

Otherwise, good show
