    'Vicar of Bray'. That's pretty obscure!

    Hint:
    first pic, look for a gardening term.
    second pic: what do the red numbers signify?

    Forgive the delay, I was having trouble finding a good one and then I forgot about this game until I was reminded.

    I had to make this from scratch, it's rather easy, not as challenging one as I hoped to find:

    It's not a proverbial phrase but a true catchphrase and it is from a film.

    Am I correct in thinking it's a gunman looking at himself in a mirror and asking a question? Or not recognising himself? I'm fairly stumped as the only gun-related quote/catchphrase I can think of is "Do you feel lucky punk"... For not recognising, there's the Bourne films but I can't think of a catchphrase from them

    Can't find any idioms with mirror or reflection. Perhaps it's something with 'yourself', like 'second guess yourself'? No idea about the pistol though.
