Thanks to all who entered this weekend’s challenge.

In joint third place with 5 votes apiece we have SimpleSimon@4 and Tyke@17.

Sharing second place on 7 votes are Paul@8, Fiery@22 and Culmer@23.

Out in front, however, with 10 votes is Mattrom@24 with a cleverly constructed anagram of parts (and I liked the play on ‘heel’ as definition).

Small half-collie under orders to heel (9)

Congratulations Mattrom, your prize consists of some cinematic scoundrels of old…
