    Ah it doesn't matter but it probably falls foul of a couple of rules tbh.

    Four Men and a Lady 2
    I'm a Four, Baby -1
    Coming in from the rear -1


    Molly helping her team out to a lead but it can all change very quickly

    Shouldn't The A Team be on 2?

    I thought you were giving us explosion/explosives/?

    Sounds to me like Necro just doesn't have any faith in your guessing abilities lassyk... ;)

    Don't worry, even if your team don't believe in you, the rest of us do. Go on, have a guess, you can do it...

    Yeah, I was trying to fit something along that theme in there but couldn't think how.

    Mine was drive. As in, "let's go for a spin". It was a risk, but thought it might tie other more obvious clues together.

    Well done aaron!

    Cheers. I didn't know that 103.8 was Spin tbh, but that combined with Rotate were a great combination. Was definitely thinking along your train of thought too

    Never even heard of a Spin Magazine

    Don't mind me I'm clearly losing my mind... Boiler was one of the possible answers in my head not one of the clues.

    Wasn’t sure if you were from Dublin or not but decided to risk it. Alternative was going rotate or turntable etc. Figured something like that would probably be covered.

    It’s kind of weird guessing. Cause I was thinking sometimes of going more obscure but then with duplicates maybe only your obscure word is left.

    Like with penny my first word was going to be black. As in the stamp. And was sure someone or a few would say coin or something. So thought farthing might be guessed even on it’s own.

    Was thinking Lancaster either. Probably should have done that :D

    I think the likes of black is too wide, it could tie in with so many words. So its ok if you get three other words but if you get one other you're f**ked
