As written the rules say the tiebreaker is outright first place votes, of which mattrom has 1 (from aristo) and jono has none, so mattrom 18 wins without the need for a run-off.

Buddy,
Jono also got 2 votes from Baccy @31 as a first place.

Buddy,
But we see your point as it was clue 25 - which was pinched from us 😨😨😜🥰👏it’s all so unfair, you’ve gotta be kidding me…(copyright J McEnroe )

Think Mattrom and Jono should liaise and present a joint clue under the soubriquet MOJO

Yes, the votes are for the clue not the person

Ok having read rules, it says first places are "taken into consideration". On that basis, Mattrom leads both in terms of number of 2pts scored and in terms of outright 1sts so in the absence of an appeal from Jono, Mattrom had to be the winner.

A bit unsatisfactory but given that we had two such closely matched clues then I think we should all give a clap to both worthy entrants and remind ourselves that both clues were excellent.

As we're some of Mr Caine finest roles, two of which are hinted at below as prizes.

My 2pt vote was indeed for jono but for his Doors clue which made me smile - so I assume buddy is spot on.

Well dome mattrom. Cheers stmichel; that challenge brought back a few happy memories.
