Congratulations, jafo, and thanks, richardk.

Congratulations Jafo
Cheers Richardk

Well done, jafo. I'm sure you've heard the hoary tale with the punchline 'Where did it all go wrong, George?'

Thanks, Richardk. I suppose the prize could also have come from 'Good Will Hunting' to echo our search for clues.

Congrats jafo and thanks richardk

Is a clue where the definition has the same first four letters as the answer and shares the same Latin root verb really acceptable? I know the judge’s decision is final and it’s only informal, etc, but I’m a little surprised, even if testimonial is used in a different sense in the clue.

Thanks Richard and thanks for your comment in the summary. Congratulations to Jafo though, I really liked your other clue @7 too (if this was a Peer Review it would have got my vote so well deserved for 2 good clues!).

I also liked jafo@7, ‘when camping’ raised a smile

Well done jafo, a good clue. I enjoyed reading them all.
Thanks for the prize RichardK (although I didn't enter!)
I loved the film and for anyone who doesn't know it was based on a book by Vera Britten, mother of Shirley Williams.

Thanks for the comments everyone, as I said to RichardK I liked the choice of word.

As to quisling, while I agree a bit I also am reminded of the saying. “Non-combatants earn no say in how wars are fought”

Apart from the Swiss naturally.
