On the grapevine in this week's challenge, we had hearsay and gossip, rumour and even The Telegraph.

We had iron balls, penile mishaps and a vigorous riser.

We had a ripe vegan puree, a raving lunatic and a nod to bacchanalia.

Ultimately, much as I loved mattrom's elegant social climber, this week's winner, with some amusing duel wordplay, is:

Source of news might prove fruitful for the press (9)

Well done jono and thanks to all who took part.

But I must say that this is the best version of the song:

Very many thanks Baccy. Fun challenge and enjoyed the clips, and Buddy’s one as well.
Cheers all.
Ttfn.

Very good Jon. Honestly I thought it was the winner as soon as I saw it. Cheers Baccy!

Well done, Jono, I too liked your clue. Thanks to Baccy for the challenge, the mention, and the clips.

Excellent clue, Jono. My fave as well. Thanks for hosting, baccy, as that name seems to have taken. You Brits probably never experienced what immediately came to my mind when I saw the word: The California Raisins.
