Hi Les, welcome back. Can I get a parse for #36?
I thought 'one or more' could be 'some' or 'one from the set' could be 'tooth' or I may be totally wrong.

Hi mattrom, I forget sometimes who's not fro UK and you may not know British refs.
You are almost thee with the parse but part of it plays double duty running into a secondary cryptic Def. And a little misdirection using 'set' as set of teeth and the set where TV Shows are flimed.

Pretty = def
One = tooth
(or more) = some
from the set (set of teeth)
and usually seen on the Jeremy Kyle show are people with only one tooth showing or just a few (some teeth) - which is a running joke in Uk.
I think that the people who have watched it will chuckle at this but anyone who hasn't may think it's crap.
It's worth a viewing on You Tube. I'll stick my neck out and say that whichever episode you pick on You Tube, there'll be a person with remarkably bad or missing teeth. Ha ha!
Have a great day to you all.

What is funny is that I'm off work today and The Jeremy Kyle show starts in half an hour. I'll give it a viewing to see if anyone needs dental attention and let you know later.

PS: apologies for spelling anomalies in above post, I'm on my phone typing which I find a little more difficult to see. Predictive text sometimes trips me up too if I don't re-read stuff to check. I think a few have commented before on this problem.
Take care.

Thanks, Les - yes, Google did bring up the "tooth lady"
