Answer To Thursday's Brain Teaser

Here is the answer to the teaser I posted the other day.

Which point of the compass might be indicated by the Transylvanian film-maker Paul Martin (inspired by Graham Greene), a team in Essex with a single-letter chant, and the province that was the birthplace of the Castros?

The answer is East.
The film-maker Paul Martin directed Orient Express in 1934, based on the Graham Greene story Stamboul Train. The team is Leyton Orient, the 'O's, whose nickname inspires a terrace chant. The province is Oriente, in the east of Cuba, the birthplace of Raul and Fidel Castro.

So they are all oriented towards the orient.
