So if you watch Only Connect you will know that as well as the Connecting wall that the New York Times ripped off and then became a thread on here, they have the connections between 4 things where 1 is revealed and then another and you can have a guess on the connection.
4 points for 1 clue, 3 for 2, 2 for three, and 1 for one.
So first clue is Christina Kay (no googling)

Yes - British tidal Islands. The next two would've been Eilean Donan and St Michael's Mount.

I would have guessed Burgh Island, and swithered between St Michael's Mount and Holy Island.

Occasionally when watching Only Connect, I think some questions are a bit too niche. I think this is so I apologise and will put up the next two clues, and if no one gets them, will let someone else set the next set while I go and sit on the niche step.
-
Something to do with death? (scythe, bodies, flowers and a possibly dead woman). Probably not, but my best guess.

As I said bit niche - they are paintings that were used in album covers.
