We had a remarkable 14 setters enter. With three votes outstanding, there is one competitor putting a lot of daylight between his clue and the rest of the field. See you all back here in three hours.

Given that we know the result, I may start WPR early. I hope that’s ok!

All right, voting has ended. Tow voters didn’t make it, but it was a runaway victory anyway. First, the rest of the podium. In third with one vote is Paul @21. Claiming the silver is FieryJack @37. Today’s winner, with a spectacular showing of 8 votes is Tyke @39 with

Painter framed by philanthropic associate (7)

It would have had my vote too. Congrats, tyke. Here are your prizes:

Tyke’s victory brought this to mind.

Many thanks everyone - and thanks to Darla for hosting and the prizes.
`Guernica` is one of the great works of art - it depicts the horrors of war. For many years it was displayed in the United Nations Building in New York, but is back home in Spain now - Picasso painted it in Paris.

Congrats Tyke. Thanks Darla - we can never have enough of JR & the ML (if only I was as good at clueing as I am at songs😢).
