Morning, all! The correct answers are;
Fred and Wilma Flintstone (1962)
Ozzie and Harriet Nelson (Ricky Nelson's parting hit song, "Garden Party." (1962)

and the very first? "Mary Kay and Johny," a 15 minute comedy that aired in 1947. No one remembers this one!

Bilbo got one and Dreams got the other. Please, one of you post a new question.

OK, another cryptic clue then;

Weapon that quickens the pulse (10 )

Shayne Parkinson · 09-17-2011, 06:04 AM

Just fyi, you've asked that one here before, Bilbo. I remember, because I got it last time (and because it's a particularly good one).

Ah, sorry. I did have a feeling I might have, but wasn't sure.

I'll leave it open for anybody who didn't see it before, but here's a new one as well;

' !' (3, 1, 4)

Oh dear, have I killed this thread?

Please feel free to put in a different question if mine isn't up to standard.

Bilbo1967 · 09-17-2011, 04:52 PM

I have killed it

It's not dead! It's only resting.

Hmm, if I said "Cut a dash" would I be anywhere near the answer, or at least travelling in the right direction?

Thanks for putting my mind at rest

'Cut a dash' isn't that close I'm afraid and it's a difficult one to give hints towards.

Stitchawl · 09-17-2011, 07:11 PM

Not at all dead, Bilbo. But I for one am really poor at cross-word type questions. I'm sitting back and watching.

Bizarrely, the sentiments inherent in your response are closer to the answer than you might think

Sorry pooh, no.

Consider what Stitchawl might have said given his professed lack of skill at cryptic crossword type questions.

And with that - bedtime for me.
