Yep

Lieutenant Pigeon is correct .

The Spoon · 25-08-2009, 17:09

just one more question...

ramraider1 · 26-08-2009, 20:57

Plastic Ono Band ?

A wild guess based on NOO anagram
Combo = Band
+ Yoko's Japanese roots .

+ Was your last post a brilliantly observed impression of the deity that is Lieutenant Columbo ?

Hotelier · 29-08-2009, 21:13

You have it ramraider, looks probable and spoon seems to be away.

ramraider1 · 29-08-2009, 23:32

Not convinced I'm correct Hotelier .

However here's another :-

At the back of Ram Robbie's house

Terrence Chant · 30-08-2009, 08:26

Savage Garden

I like your answer to Spoon's clue Ram, just can't quite see how Plastic is clued in. Oh well, I'll leave another in the meantime.....

Terrence Chant · 30-08-2009, 08:28

No alternative to the fabric softener

ramraider1 · 30-08-2009, 10:52

Savage Garden is correct .

Not convinced 'Plastic Ono band is correct Terrence .

The Cutlery man may eventually confirm the error of my ways .

The Spoon · 01-09-2009, 09:42

sorry peeps - didn't see any activity when I last checked -

'Noo' anagrammed is 'Ono' - 'plastic' means able to be deformed/manipulated thus plastic and ono - 'Noo' is how one writes accented 'no' and 'no' = banned = band

I thought it was elegant...

Terrence Chant · 01-09-2009, 10:06

Ah, I get it....plastic was the anagram indicator, hidden in the band name

The band in the latest clue were famous for pinching a hot star....

ramraider1 · 01-09-2009, 20:15

of course it's LEN

The falling star was 'sunshine'
pinching = 'steal'

therefore song title ' steal my sunshine'.

Fabric Conditioner = LENOR minus the alternative OR =

LEN

ramraider1 · 01-09-2009, 20:22

An easy one

This door man boasts incessant intercourse ?

Terrence Chant · 01-09-2009, 22:07

I was thinking Carter USM, but not sure how Carter befits doorman....needs a bit more thought perhaps....

The Spoon · 01-09-2009, 22:58

incessant = unending so could be FUC or SCRE or BON

BON JOVI?

could start with I'm i.e. IM

Carter was the name of the cop in "the Sweeney" and the Michael Caine villain in "Get Carter"

he also got to be President of the US of A

That crossed my mind T.
I found a firm of doormakers called 'Carter', but thats about it!

Oh...just seen Spoons Michael Caine 'get carter' reference, so it might be a nod towards MC's 'just blow the bloody doors off' line in 'the Italian job'.

Terrence Chant · 02-09-2009, 11:01

Hi H....my other thought was Jim (Morrison) for door(s) man, or even The Carpenters as a carpenter would hang a door.....

Ooh, hang on....if you take the 'pen' out of Carpenter you're left with Carter.....but why would pen come out? Maybe not....

The Spoon · 02-09-2009, 17:53

Charlie Croker was the name of MC in the IJ - however, as it was the same actor as Carter and as the rest fits - Unstoppable Sex Machine

As it happens,, I was at their last ever gig...

ramraider1 · 02-09-2009, 18:03

Grovelling apologies time .

Carter USM is correct . Think it was Terrence who got it .

I should have written Carlton , not Carter .

Would this have made it any easier ?

Hotelier · 02-09-2009, 18:13

That will be yours then T

ramraider1 · 02-09-2009, 18:19

I'm off to have a long lie down as I am talking c..p tonight and last night .

Talk about bewildered !

I thought that the doorman in the U.S comedy Rhoda was called CARTER in fact hewas called Carlton therefore I have just wasted everyone's time .

Even more grovelling apologies !

I'm confused, you didn't mention Carter in the clue....and this is your first post since...

Unless I'm having a blond moment

edit

Just seen your last post. It's ok, np

The indirect Michael caine link would make the clue work anyways

ramraider1 · 02-09-2009, 18:20

No Hotelier see above excuse .

It's me who is not with it .

The Spoon · 02-09-2009, 23:14

Terrence Chant · 03-09-2009, 06:44

Heheh, ok time for the newie....

Doesn't forget to remove the cinders

spirit · 03-09-2009, 08:14

Remembers (doesnt forget) minus (removes) embers (cinders) = REM
