Thanks to everyone who contributed to this week's Clueless. I chose a word with limited anagrams, but, hopefully, scope for other types of wordplay. I think you've extracted them all. Though not a fan of indirect anagrams, hats off to Geeker for his ingenious constructions.
Touches I liked were Geeker's 'drop trou', Jono's Azeddish 'Scot's elbow pain', Paul's 'pool man' and 'Queensland beach', Tyke's acronym, and Aristo's 'uncovered buns'.
Runners up are Jono 2 and 20, Tyke 19, Aristo 25.
This week's winner' partly because it made me smile, is Paulh's #5

Very nice Paulh - well done! Thanks for the mention Mattrom.

Congrats Paul, well deserved. Thanks Mattrom, happy with “Azeddish”!

Congrats Paul, and thanks mattrom.

I must be completely out of synch with American humour. I certainly would buy the records that Dylan is advertising (I suspect that it wasn't actually him) in the first clip, and I fail to see any point in the second one. I also fail to see how many Americans think that Trump isn't an egotistical, bullying criminal either!
