A great set of clues and as much as I enjoyed reading and parsing all your entries I am mightily relieved that a clear winner has resulted; BBM2 @ 25 with the sublime:-

Lively oral encounter is missing Noel Coward

Commiserations to all but particularly the quintet who each polled 2 votes, which includes BBM2's other clue.

I know you will all have your own ideas on who the subject of the clip (I'm trusting the link works) is but hopefully this will surprise and possibly be new to some of you.

Thanks everyone for taking part and although I'm relatively new to the forum I'm looking forward to next week's 100th Peer Review.

Congrats BBM2 - I must confess that if I had read your clue more carefully, it probably would have been my first choice too - lesson for next time.

Thanks for running the contest so well, ginge; and also for the clip - I'm pleased I watched it to the end, as it was much better than I thought it was going to be at the start!

Well done, bbm2, and thanx 2 ginge for running the show. The clip brought back many funny memories to me of teaching (or trying to teach) English to foreigners! And thanx 4 those votes, too!

It will be a great honour to set the centenary Peer review and I will try to think up something special .

Thank you to aristo , fieryjack and jws for the votes , also to Les and busby .

You make a fine host , ginge . The guy in the prize clip is quite the raconteur , he is new to me but very good

My personal favourite was Dave Allen ..

See you all next week for the celebrations !

Marty
