Well done, Jono.

Thanks for hosting, Buddy, and for the brilliant Costello clip! Great find, from his second album. As soon as I saw your heading for the clip, I just knew...

Congrats jono and thanks buddy.

The keyboard player for the Attractions was at the school where I was teaching in Catford while I was there. He wasn't a scientist, though, so I have no memory of him!

When I started watching the dominoes, I was thinking "who wants to watch this?", but I rapidly found it mesmerising!

spike, we saw him earlier this year; he played both No Action and Pump it Up from This Year's Model. As good as ever...

Thanks all for the votes and cheers Buddy for the challenge , enjoyed the clips. Like Chris, I found the dominoes difficult to stop watching.

What’s the consensus regarding next week? To be honest, I’d rather not have to judge Clueless on Christmas day and I suspect there may not be many entrants. Happy to kick off PR as normal though.

As a suggestion we could play the “blitz” clue setting game that we did a few years ago and start on Sunday evening when WPR closes. For those that weren’t around, the idea is that someone sets a clue, then first to solve it correctly immediately sets another and so on and so on. Words were generally on a Christmas theme back then but don’t have to be. Just an idea.

Well done, Jono! Thanks to Buddy for the challenge and the clips. I appreciated your vote, Aristo, and the likes from Geting and Dorrien.
I think that the decision to run the competitions over Christmas should be left to the setters, in this case, Jono and Jono :-))

Congatulations Jono. I like your blitz clue idea for those who are around. Thanks Buddy, and Simplesimon, Mattrom and Paul for your support.
