(Troilus and Cressida, or U & C? Well, they could have done, T&C... but, alas, things didn't go as it seemed they'd go.)
Weber and Fields (vaudeville)
Xenophon and Cyrus the younger
(I appreciate that this is pushing 'famous,' but it's X.)
You could have tried W, not only easier but the correct letter!
We did "W" Clary. I said Weber and Fields. You were pipped.
Yeah, Troilus and Cressida was referring to a reply on the other page.
Actually, we reversed the order of "V" and "W", but what the heck - it's Saturday night (at least, where I am), so we can play a little fast and loose with the alphabet!
Also pushing a bit here, to get the "Y":
Yseult and Tristan
oh dear - it's because Drom was talking about U and C!
Now that we've cleared that up (yeah, sure), who's got a "Z"?
Zinoviev and Kamënev -- formed the left opposition against Stalin.
No, wait a sec. We didn't reverse the V and W. Are you sure it's Saturday where you are Bree?
No, I don't have a Z. I thought Zorro had a sidekick, but I can't find him. (lol)
I'm pretty sure it's Saturday night here, and I'm pretty sure we had Weber and Fields before we had Victoria and Albert, and I'm virtually certain that's a reversal of the order in which the letters "V" and "W" are supposed to appear in the alphabet, but hey -- the important thing is we had 26 entries, and (drom having found a "Z") --
the next round is open to whoever wants to start it!
Zelda & F. Scott Fitzgerald
There was Viola and Orsino and then Weber and Fields and then Drom began chatting and ....I know. Let's do one about things that cause arguments, fights, etc.
Athletic games (my team is better than your team)
British politics
(I like that idea, Raggedy.)
Closet space (your side or mine)
