Thanks to all who entered this week’s challenge. Nine clues received votes and it went down to the wire, but thankfully no need for a judges decision!

In a close run second place we have Dorrien @6 and Patrich @13 who each received 2 votes, but just out in front with three votes is Mattrom @7 with…

High flyer from news channel on a spree (7)

Many congratulations Mattrom - and a hat trick to start the year if I’m not mistaken! ✨

Here are your prizes…

Well done, Mattrom! Thanks for hosting, Jono. Sex Pistols/Ella Fitzgerald, if you closed your eyes, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

Chuffed with the votes from Aristo and Geeker, thanks. Thanks also to Tyke51, Geeker, Patrich and F\#+*J℅€¢ for the mentions. All appreciated.

Many congratulations mattrom, a spectacular hattrick … just like your cricket team (sigh!). I think we need a super-clue from Jay-Rob Winston to stop your run. Onwards and upwards to WPR.

Anyway, thanks for your vote as well, and to peterm and dorrien for yours, and to tyke51, spike2, chrise and geeker for the likes. Thanks jono for the challenge and the clips.

Thanks to Paulh, Patrich, and Fj for your votes, and to Dorrien for the mention. Something to chirp 🎵 about after a rain-sodden night.
Thanks also to Jono for the challenge. I enjoyed the clips, especially the wonderful Ella.
Weekend Peer coming up soon...

Congratulations, mattrom! Thanks to jono for hosting, tabulation and clips. Cheers to buddy for vote, patrich for like and mathprof for mention.
Spike2@26 is beyond category; awesome clue, pity I didn't know that usage. Read the lyrics, afraid to listen to the tune.
