I think mattrom is on record as not minding if the same word is set(!) twice.

Do not adjust your sets...

Well folks the people have spoken again and in a display of democratic power to put the systems of the West to shame the result is a clear…tie.

In third place with 6 points is Buddy 6.

In joint second place with 8 votes apiece are Chris 7 and Buddy 10.

In joint 1st place with 9 votes apiece are Tyke 8 and Jon 11.

Tyke’s; Arrange some vacuous tango (3)
Jon’s; Aspects occasionally reveal a lowering of the horizon (3)

Both excellent clues but for me, and by a whisker, the winner has to be Jon 11.

Well done Jon and here are your prizes’

Somewhat controversially but fascinating – was there advanced life on Mars?

Also controversial but for a different reason – might have posted this before but funny enough to watch again..

And finally another that might drive extreme feminists mad until they got the joke;

Well done again!

Thanks Paul and to all the voters! I think Tyke did technically win this one so happy to concede either way. In any event I enjoyed the Harry Enfield clips!

I tend to agree with PaulH and a Mattrom, that it’s fine to revisit an older word challenge if time has passed. It’s interesting to see how setting styles, devices and voter preferences have changed over time.

Cheers all, and until tomorrow, ttfn!
