'Who is the person and what did he do?'
Here is my analysis

Alice - 'Boingo the clown - Juggles in the circus'
A large handful of the children groaned because they all thought he was a clown as well. I'm also sure that David Bowie would call himself a clown. Boingo is a fantastic name. Alice added that he runs the popcorn machine. Great.

Katie - 'Jump Start Jonny - on the TV'
Okay, some context. Jump start Johnny runs a yoga and exercise on YouTube and sometimes we watch him in class. J.S.J doesn't wear make-up and if I'm honest, he's quite annoying. Smug little yoga man. The kids love him but Bowie...he is not.

Jack - 'Bolt - Runner'
You can definitely see the link here. He thinks this is 100m world record holder Usain Bolt. If any athlete WAS going to run with a lighting bolt across their face, it's Usain. Textbook showmanship. I'm actually surprised he hasn't done that. It'd be cool

Toby - 'David Bam - Rock and roll man'
Oh my goodness. Toby is so close. I know someone in his life loves Bowie and is trying to brainwash him into loving him also. He really thought about his last name. Squinted and everything. I personally think David Bam is a better name.

Emma - 'Simon - Artist'
In her words - He is french, he paints and he also teaches people. If he is french his name isn't Simon it's pronounced Sìmon. It's also one word like Prince or Chewbacca. But she's right. Bowie was an artist. Wise to point out he taught people. He did.

Mikey - 'Lucy...Lucy - Dancer'
Firstly, he thinks Bowie is a female. Which granted he was very fluid with the gender structure. So kudos to Mikey for picking that up. Lucy Lucy is a dancer. A Dancer for money. I asked 'what kind of dance?' - to which he replied 'Moving dance'.

Ravi - 'Ringo - Musician'
Ravi you are just a wonderful, human. He's so dam close. He's said Ringo because I love The Beatles and talk to him about them. He's probably matching that to the picture. The fact he remembered Ringo made me so happy. Ravi is always making me smile.

Rosie - 'Harry Styles - Face painter'
I can almost see the link. Almost. Although Rosie genuinely believes that he was booked out for children's birthday parties and paints tigers on people's faces. The art , craft and musicianship of Bowie has gone right out the window here.

Wendy - 'King Bao - King of Spain'
He's not the current King of Spain I might add. He use to be. I asked Wendy what happened to him. In her words 'He thought he was cool. Hes not. Gets head cut off.' I'm sure Bowie would find that hilarious. To some, he was definitely a king.

Ben - 'David Attenborough - Movie Star'
Imagine just how out of place David Attenborough would've looked walking through the Amazon but with a big lighting bolt across his face. I do however think that D.A would suit a giant red mullet. The man is capable of absolutely anything

Susanna - 'Roman Reigns - Wrestler'
Susanna has a big family. Lots of testosterone fuelled boys. I'm sure she's subject to lots of wrestling. Roman Reigns is a WWE star. But tbf, in this picture Bowie could pass a wrestler. He's quiet feeble tho. He'd get battered constantly
