Ode to Psycho (John Keats, 1819)

Is Derek Acorah a real name or merely an anagram? It looks like a Countdown Conundrum to me: D E R E K A C O R A H

The winning answer will be defined, in three different ways, by Frank Muir, Willie Rushton and the Shah of Iran, in next week's episode.

A brilliant deduction. The mystical harocaker discipline was first brought to the West's attention by George Harrison in 1967. If one plays 'Within You Without You' backwards, one can clearly hear Harrison chanting 'harocakered, harocakered', accompanied by Ravi Shakar, Chaka Khan and Benny Hill.

Much later, at his school for Yogic Flying (in Bootle), Harrison schooled a young seeker called Derick Adamson. We know him better as the Master of the Orbs: Derek Acorah.

Harrison's Ford at the time was a Mark 1 Granada (Ghia).
