It’s not Big Bill is it?

Not Bill. I think the second clue is probably easier, pay attention to the formatting.

Correct! If you are culpable for something it's 'on you' sounds a bit like On Yee. If you omit the O from Nog you get Ng.

It clicked after I had a proper look at the second clue! That was a good ‘un :hatoff:

Not Ronnie or Zhao.

I’m interested to know how you’re arriving at these answers.

My reasoning was that in excess could be OTT, so I guessed Graeme Dott and John Parrott.

Then I thought that INXS's 'New Sensation' might describe Zhao Xintong.

The last ones that seems to be a slam dunk as far as I can see is Neal Foulds, as In Excess was the name of a famous racehorse & a foal is a young horse. (assuming Phil Studd wouldn't be an answer, as In Excess was a record breaking stud horse as well) to which Tony Knowles had a stud nickname?

You’re both in the right area, but maybe you’re complicating things a bit. Keep it simple. What were INXS?

Re: 2 Word Clue

Joe or Fred Davis? INXS were formed by the Farriss brothers (thanks Wikipedia!) and Joe and Fred are the founding brothers of modern snooker.
