Not correct

An oriental copse is not caslled a horne

Think

Orient = ?

Another word for copse, smaller than forest = ?

Then the first one will be obvious

Where's Richard Ruck when you need him?

1st name of famous jazz musician - clue to him is "Mornington Crescent!"

Surname is split between these 2 clues

1) = 1st syllable

2) = 2nd syllable

1) ch slang for wc

2) school for painting ( -------- school)

Humphrey Bogart (but I don't get the Mornington Crescent clue???)

and good for Harvey Keitel - but the moon reference was Harvey Moon

wasn't there an old TV series with a bloke called Harvey Moon set in East London?

Anyway - here's a more difficult one for you.

Mouse found in angel's heart - get my drift???
