Still a couple of votes to come in which could change things as they stand, so I’ll give it a bit longer before wrapping things up

Well we didn’t quite get all the votes in, but no matter. Thanks to all those who entered this week’s challenge.

Fiery and Patrick each received one vote, but in first place Buddy is tied with himself receiving two votes each for clues 8 and 11, so is the clear winner.

I think this is my favourite of the two is…

That's funny - Long Island dad is an Italian porn star! (8)

Congratulations Buddy, here are the prizes (I’ve tried to avoid the obvious)… and in case you’re wondering, no, they don’t include your porn star (who I only googled for technical purposes)

Shirley Temple in the Simpsons (very short and slightly weird)…

Britain’s longest serving lollipop lady…

And inspired by Fiery’s clue, some Lol Creme…

Cheers all! 🍭

I think I can safely say that I never thought that clue could win. Thanks mattrom and paul for the votes and to jono for the crucial tie breaker. Thanks chris and pat for the other votes.

Thanks for hosting and the clips jon (er, slightly weird?]. I tried for a clue using lollipop lady but couldn't make anything work. Looking at the Wikipedia page for Lollipop for ideas led me to the winning clue (I had not heard of her before this, I swear.....)
