Thanks to everyone who contributed this week.
Quite a few good hidden/reverse hidden clues from chrise 3, buddy 11, jono12 and tyke 15.
I enjoyed chrise's rabbits, buddy's cross-dressing bishop, jono's reverse ferret, buddy and mprs's 'terre' clues, paul's Rolls Royce, jimmy's Spooner's treatise, aristo's ferris wheel and buddy's Ferris Bueller.
Liked the acrostics from buddy 10 and FJ 25.
My short list included buddy 8&11, jono 12&21, BBM2 18 and FJ 25.
As this week's winner I've chosen buddy's concise hidden # 11

Golfer returns holding rifle

Well done, buddy! Here is your prize

Thanks mattrom - your clip reminded me of Elizabeth I saying "I have a bath every six months, whether I need it or no". (I never had had the remotest desire to have a ferret as a pet!).
Good clue, buddy. However I would have preferred jono's @21, and thought FJ's @25 was one of the best clues ever!
