| 1. | Nice idea but not convinced by "endlessly", which could be interpreted in different ways. | | 2. | Not comfortable using "endlessly" to remove the front "end" (as well as the back) of a word/phrase. | | 3. | My favourite of the Ian Hislop clues – well done. | | 4. | Tempting as the Ian Hislop connection is, just "Private Eye" seems unsatisfactory to define the v. English & 19thC "Holmes". O/w excellent |
