    Well done that man. It's bloody difficult to give an extra clue without giving it away too easily...

    This Nobel prizewinner was nominated by another winner but didn't receive the award for another 4 years. Some years later he was detained in custody for 6 months.

    Nice guess but no. This chap had his uncertain moments and it was the British who held him in custody.

    He's one of those people, like the guy who nominated him, who is able to take quantum leaps in his mind.

    He was investigated at one time by the Schutzstaffel because of his academic rigor. Later he became the director of a world-renowned institute. In the intervening period he was involved with work akin to the Manhattan Project.

    Yes.

    Quick guess - Dr Josef Mengele?

    Correct - AKA the angel of death. Bloody quick.

    Well he is known for his work with twins, plus I'd been reading about Nazi Germany for Heisenberg.

    Someone else jump in.

    True, still you'd have to dig pretty deep looking at the prominent nazis to stumble upon Mengele. He does get a significant mention in the horror story that is Auschwitz-Birkenau... Should have left out the twins I reckon.

    Been to Dachau, read plenty about the Holocaust, so probably an intuitive jump. It's difficult to give vague but accurate clues without tipping off the sharp-eyed people here. Fun.

    This person is one of the most significant figures in our Anglo history but is little known by the general public. He knew Guy Fawkes, and his books were on the Mayflower.
