It was,perhaps, a mistake for an eggshell blond or, more bluntly, a slaphead to give an answer that led to so many hairy clues but, c'est la vie.
There were many fine clues leading to mythical and hirsute beasts, although it did take a long time before there was a mention of Lon Chaney. Raffle, the mentioner, did, however, seem to refer to the "correct" answer with his DJ clue.
One person who read my mind was darla, who came up with the short, sweet and brilliant:
Jack the lycanthrope.
A clear winner.
There is a lot of music to come, split into two so, pour yourself a large claret or a strong black coffee and make some sandwiches and give me a few minutes to post.
