Apologies for my tardiness big bad...

Looks like there's no vote from fiery or tango this week.
That leaves the contest delicately poised in a tie between ixion#20 and rossim#15.

It's a tough choice but I just prefer rossim's acronym (despite a possibly redundant "be") over ixion's (teeny bit lengthy) charade.

Here's your prize (some bad language!)

Thanks to all who participated this week, and I think the clue parsing was helpful.

See you all soon

Marty

Thanks BBM2 and congrats rossim - I'm pleased you won despite me withholding my vote!

btw although tango has now entered several times, he/she is yet to register a vote, I think.

sorry fieryjack it was les that was missing off my list.

Doesn't affect the result.

It can be frustrating waiting for a vote but we don't know everyone's circumstances.

However if you have no intention of voting you should not really be taking part.

Thanks for setting it BBM2 and well done to Rossim, looking forward to the next one.

Thanks Marty.
I did deliberate over the 'be' but ran out of tweaking time. (It's that time of year!).
Thanks for the votes Faraday, Skyewaker and Dorrien and no problem ChrisE.
I enjoyed the clip. The film was new to me.

See you all next week hoping you'll find time to post your excellent clues.

@ Tango If he/she had won would they know and then be available to set a word the following week? There is never a vote or any follow up later so it can't just be time difference. It's a mystery.

Well done Rossim, I am pleased for you.
and well done Ixion too

Thanks for the mention ChrisE and Stevea - always gratefully received !

and thank you BBM2 for hosting - I too think that the idea of each entry being parsed is a very good idea.

Sorry about the repetition of 'idea' - would not be good on 'just a minute' !
