I struggled with that first wall, just couldn't see the football team nicknames, but it was so obvious in retrospect. Cracking missing vowels round, if they keep up that form they'll be tough to beat.

I'll go with "This is Groundhog, a Geotechnical Engineer who once ran into the actor Tony Robinson while riding his bicycle through Bristol."* * I think he was distracted while making up another cunning plan.
