No reply yet Sexie. I'm pretty sure we're right on with the theatre:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The first stanza (Paris Opera House) was all but confirmed by Angelo in MSN. The legend mentioned is the Phantom of the Opera. Again, confirmed by Angelo. (Remember though, he was in character, so confirmation was also in character.) I think it's fairly certain the lord who stole the legend is Andrew Lloyd Webber. I'm fairly sure we're on the money with the Theatre. I think we're just off UK hours now (2:30 am there now I think?) I bet we'll hear something tomorrow.
But who knows, you could be right as well. I'm at a loss to come up with another location though.

Hmm... if all the puzzles are like this, I won't be of much use. If we have some codes like the first one, then I'll be fine.

It's very early. Hard to tell what we're in store for. I'd say the more brains the better.

small update I had a reply back from Lucian regarding my photoshopped teddy bear/theatre pic. His reply:
Subject: Not acceptable.
Body: That picture is not acceptable.
No big surprise there. We need someone in London to actually drop with and take a picture with a real teddy bear in front of the real theatre. Russell is out of town for the weekend. Is anyone else available in London that could do this?
Of course the other possibility is that the Theatre is not the correct answer. I wouldn't know what else to look at to be honest though.

No, that's what I figured. We need to acctually go there.
If it was the wrong answer, it wouldn't be "unacceptable" it would be "incorrect" in my opinon

I will give you this one, because you seem to have reached the correct answer anyway.
Here is your piece of his life:
He was born in Leeds, UK.

That picture is not acceptable.
Lucians,
I thought that might be the case. We will have an acceptable picture for you soon, though it may be as late as Sunday or Monday.

Not long after I received this, Angelo logged on. I've passed the info on to him, and here is a copy of our convo:

angelobeckettSPLAT googlemail.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:

angelobeckettSPLAT googlemail.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:

Rance says:

angelobeckettSPLAT googlemail.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:

Rance says:

angelobeckettSPLAT googlemail.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:

Rance says:

Rance says:
I was hoping there would be another lead on Lucian's site
Rance says:

angelobeckettSPLAT googlemail.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
right
angelobeckettSPLAT googlemail.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:

Rance says:
Any more clues we can receive would help us figure out the mystery.
Rance says:
Yeah, this is true.
Rance says:
I'll research a bit into Leeds, so I can be prepared.
angelobeckettSPLAT googlemail.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
ok then
Rance says:
Well, I hope the small little bit helps. If you need anything else, I should be around.
angelobeckettSPLAT googlemail.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
ok then thanks
There is currently no update to Lucian's blog. I'll probably send a small reply to Lucian.
