Blue and green were guesses but baffling.

Pleased to have spotted purple. I knew what blue and green were but not the specific words. One seems to be a verb when I was looking for a noun, one I have never heard of in the context.

One word in each group I've never heard of in these contexts. Knew what purple, green & blue were but couldn't complete any of them 🤷🏼‍♀️

Sizzle? In that context? Hmmmm

CobraChicken · 18/09/2024 18:59

Same. I knew what the connection was for both green and blue, but still couldn't solve it...

Had not a chance with blue

Britinme · 19/09/2024 05:42

Blue was easy for me as we watch a lot of PBS, but I imagine it would be a mystery to many Brits.

Would never have got blue or purple so I was doomed from the start.

I did smile at the red herring though!
