We have a winner! Well done Mattrom @25 with 5 votes, closely followed by PaulH @8 with 4 votes and Paul @3 with 3.

Hats off to all those who accepted the double clue writing challenge, but some very skilful single clueing as well this week. I liked Mattrom’s Listener-style clue @23, also @25, PaulH @8, kt17 @11, Paul @2 and Chrise’s “Yorkshire shellfish” which made me laugh. Thank you all for indulging me in a slight variation to normal proceedings!

Here’s the prize... and no, it’s not ‘Terry’ by Twinkle!
It’s a piano lesson (of sorts) - 7 steps to ‘Twinkle Twinkle Little Star’

Congrats mattrom - in a normal PR it would have been my pick too. Thanks jono, and for the amazing clip, and also for the mention.
Thanks too for the votes from richardk and bbm2, and the mentions from granama1 and FJ.
