Welcome to Clueless, our informal weekly clue-setting competition.

The idea is to compose a cryptic clue to a given word or phrase.

The winner of the previous week’s competition both sets the word or phrase to be clued and judges the entries for the current week.

The judge’s decision is final; reasons may or may not be given at the judge’s discretion. It is customary for the judge to donate a virtual prize to the winner.

To be fair to others, please do not make any comments on entries until after the winner has been declared.

Multiple entries may be submitted and new competitors are particularly welcome!

Feel free to add an explanation if you feel it will help.

Clues to be submitted by 18.00 B.S.T. tomorrow (Wednesday 17th December) with the result being announced shortly after.

This week's word to be clued is;

ARTICULATE (10)

Have fun

Throw cruel one at the double-jointed. (10)

Join Ted, say? (10)

Wren reduced architectural change to be more distinct (10)
