Comments on the clue
1.Funny but a little obscure I think
2.It's a bit much to expect solvers to recall an obscure 1992 tabloid headline
3.Funny (after seeing explanation), but even with help from 'tabloid newspaper', I'd never get TOE from 'celebrated job'
4.I didn't understand this.
5.The reference is much too obscure!
