Lots of (very similar) globes I didn't recognize here! For what it's worth, I also knew 2, 9, 17 and 19. As always, thanks for the quiz Mr. Demon!

Yes, 3. is of course correct, so is 15.
27. is not correct, Grandson.

(I bet you know where #16 comes from, kate me! ) Go ahead, another guessing period has already started.

By the way, here's small contribution to the thread - my very own trusty globe

Of course, i was using it while plundering The Caribbean



Now it mainly serves to hold the liquor




I'm not sure, but #19 might be

Spoiler:

14. is right, 12. and 19. are not right.

Nice colours on that guy's shirt!

Why, of course! That's Don Vincenzo Occhetti (played by David Jason) finding out somebody messed up his bottles of drink (cleverly hidden in a globe). Little did he know who had messed it up :

Name: Globe 1.jpg Views: 204 Size: 20.2 KBName: Globe 2.jpg Views: 227 Size: 22.0 KBName: Globe 3.jpg Views: 757 Size: 21.4 KB
That was 'Del Boy' (played also by David Jason).
Name: WTF 2.jpg Views: 460 Size: 15.6 KB

Trunkyo, I think Skeeter deserves a point for this guess.

On topic: I'm too busy at Eddie's atm , but hopefully will come up with another guess here soon .

Sigh. Globes are apparently not my thing.. Lets try another (probably wrong) guess then. Is 16.
Spoiler:
Black Mirror 2? I can't remember a globe there, but it looks a bit like his "mother's" house in style, and she had a telescope and other "globe trotting" things..
