Well done Paulh - thanks Dorrien, twas verily a good competition & clip!

Many thanks for your decision, dorrien, genuinely unexpected. I enjoyed the prize - comedy with food for thought.

Bad Boys' Club? Never! Just sound medical advice. 😍

Jono, I'm purely a Times/S Times man, but Paul of the Guardian sounds interesting.

The Guardian puzzles are available free online every day. Lots of people like Paul's puzzles, but I'm generally not with them; I would recommend the rarely seen Arachne (I hope she's OK), Picaroon, and Nutmeg.]

Thanks for the kind words Chrise and dorrien. I thought the winner followed a similar idea as mine only first and better.

Nice one PaulH and nice clip Dorrien. I would have entered but by the time I got here my idea had been done (only better). I thought about 'Clear off, I'm busy' but couldn't get the definition to fit.

Re Paul in the Guardian. He is regarded by many to be the heir to Araucaria but with a bit more postcard humour, hence the term 'Pauline' for slightly rude clues. Some like it, some don't but his clue construction is always noteworthy.

Great clue, paulh. Thanks for the silver, dorrien.

Congratulations Paulh
Cheers Dorrien for hosting and the mention

Well done Paul! Great clue. I would have voted for it on PR.

Thanks Dorrien for setting and the likes.
