Well, did you Get Lucky with yesterday's clues? Of course you did. And if you didn't, no need stare at the Blurred Lines on the photos below anymore... because her come this week's answers.
Very busy morning yesterday and my head is too full of man-flu to work out the winner, but I suspect Alyson may have nabbed it.
10. Sean Connery's famous last words to the whole school.
Sean Connery said he'd never make another Bond film, then he made one called Never Say Never Again.
If you're speaking to the whole school, you may be in an assembly.
The Assembly - Never Never
9. Indisputably, you're dating a mutant.
No Doubt - Ex-Girlfriend
I should possibly steer clear of comic-related clues... or at least steer clear of expecting you all to have a detailed knowledge of Gwen Stefani hits.
8. Put your arms out to create a great barrier.
Great Barrier Reef, obviously.
Reef - Place Your Hands
Still sounds great.
7. Euphemistic vicar betrayal is illegal.
"Judas Priest!" is a euphemism for "Jesus Christ!"
Jesus was betrayed by Judas.
A priest is like a vicar.
Breaking the law is illegal.
Judas Priest - Breaking The Law
Video of the week!
(Charity Chic identified them despite claiming to have none in his collection. And yet I could have sworn I saw him coming out of the RSPCA shop in Arbroath with a copy of British Steel stuffed in a brown paper bag.)
6. Paid thief, less repentant than Frank.
Paid thief is an anagram.
Frank sang, "Regrets - I've had a few..." but this lady has none.
Edith Piaf - Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien
5. Henpecked deity with custard.
Godley & Creme would be under the thumb if they were henpecked.
Godley & Creme - Under Your Thumb
4. Clyde was an orangutan, not...
This is Clyde...
He's an orangutan, not a gorilla.
Who's that with him?
The Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood
3. Equitable harbour: that's just the way things are done when you're getting together with Cliff.
An equitable harbour would be a fair port.
The way things are done is a convention.
If you were getting together with cliff, you might meet on the ledge.
Fairport Convention - Meet On The Ledge
Playing a festival near George this summer, co-headlining with Judas Priest.
2. A skinny thousand for the mad monk.
Oh, those Russians!
Boney M - Rasputin
1. I'll take mine padded... although the sheets may be dirty.
A padded cell with be a soft one.
Yes, the sheets may be dirty in a bed-sitter... but dirty sheets are often tainted by love. (Sorry.)
Guess what... Saturday Snapshots will be back next week for our 75th anniversary edition! Happy now?
Caught!
ReplyDeleteYour secret is safe with me.
Delete" but I suspect Alyson may have nabbed it."
ReplyDeleteI demand a recount!
Recount done. You were a very creditable second, George.
DeleteMeet On The Ledge was a nice find. Sandy Denny adds a lot to Fairport Convention.
ReplyDeleteShe had an amazing voice. Such a shame she died so young.
