   I don't have a lot of good answers here, but I am going to take some guesses   
   anyway.

   Sporting Lisbon   
      
   > 2. Kings of England: Edward IV, ***George VI, Henry V, Henrvy VII,    
   > Richard II, Richard III    
      
   Henrvy VII -- only one who is misspelled   
   (yes, I know that's not what you have in mind, but it's the best I can come up   
   with so far)

   they are expected to join soon   
      
   > 6. Music: Arrival, Joyride, Super Trouper, Voulez-Vous, ***Voyage, Waterloo    
      
   Joyride -- only one by Roxette rather than ABBA    
      
   > 7. Litterature: ***Dodo, Doormouse, Hatter, Mock Turtle, Tigger,    
   > White Rabbit    
      
   Tigger -- only one from the Winnie the Pooh books by A. A. Milne, rather than   
   the Alice books by Lewis Carroll   
      
   > 8. Mountains: Cotopaxi, Fujiyama, Matterhorn, ***Mount Cameroon,    
   > Mount Erebus, Mount Rainer    
      
   Mount Rainer -- only one which is misspelled   
   (again, this is the best I can come up with so far)

   Picture A (I can't access this page; I get a "This site can't be reached"   
   message, but that's no reason for me to avoid guessing)
