With just three votes to come, it’s still anyone’s game…

Chris@2 2 votes
Spike2@8 2 votes
Buddy@25 2 votes

I had been set to give Paul @4 all my votes. Brilliant in its simplicity. Elegant as we say in the math world. Then Buddy came along and made a clue out of the game, after I had been trying to come up with one but fell flat. So 3 votes each to Paul @4 and Buddy @25.

1 Anthony 33 and welcome!

Thanks to everyone who took part this weekend. Lots of great clues as always.
First a welcome to AnthonyStMichel, nice to see a new setter enter the fray, and with a cleverly constructed three-part reversal which took me a while to figure out.

All contestants received votes and …
In third place with 9 votes is Buddy@25.
Second place with 10 votes we have Paul@4.
Then a special mention has to go to Spike for receiving 14 votes, spread across 5 clues which is quite an achievement.

However, in first place with 12 votes is Chris@2, a clue recorded in record time and rather elegant it is…

Radio set tuned to heavenly body (8)

Congratulations Chris!

Congrats, Chris. Well done, and in record time as Jon says. Thanks, Jono for hosting, and thank you all for the votes. Finally welcome, Anthony. We have these three times a week: Clueless tomorrow night, Peer Review starts Wed., and then Weekend Peer Review. We'd love to see you come back.

Gosh! Thanks jono, and for the votes from jimmy, FJ, paulH, tyke51, mattrom, and anthonystmichel (and can I echo the welcome!).
Thanks for the clips, jono. I was trying to place the music on the second one - was it Pink Floyd?

Yes, “The Great Gig in the Sky" it’s the fifth track on The Dark Side of the Moon

Ah! My second least favourite Pink Floyd album (after Animals).
