I had a good giggle at Shaznay Lewis, Geri Halliwell, Mel B and Sophie Ellis-Bextor.

And then I saw Craig David.

I got John Lennon, Jarvis Cocker, Mick Hucknall, The Proclaimers and Craig David.. I maybe would have got a few more but I cheated and looked at the answers.
I did guess Marc Bolan was Cher and David Bowie was Harry Potter before I remembered it was British/music answers. hahaha
(To say in my own defence, I have had a few drinks tonight)

Haha, I like how they used Craig David's Bo Selecta caricature. A testament to how muc more of a lasting impression he made than the real Craig David.
