Gonna just have to up my game and rack that brain a bit more.  I am sure the answers are hiding in there somewhere. 👨‍🎓

[Spenny]

Goddess - Iris.... can't claim she was on the tip of my tongue

Hockney....now I see the answer of course, though I think that it was Hirst that was on my tongue tip

Seige of Orleans..... definitely not on tongue or anywhere else

Riboflavin - B2.....ahhhh missed out the 2!!

Picasso....ahhhh, again tongue/tip/nearly there and all that

Thanks @Mi-Amigo for putting the strain on my brain...or at least trying to....
