Saw purple & blue immediately but just couldn't find the 4th for either

For the first time I rejected a correct option because I thought it was too British!

I fell straight for the red herring and blue definitely by default!

Anyone else been singing one of the Purples all day after doing the puzzle?

No?

Just me then. 😉

I fell for the red herring too. Three of the purples very easy (and yes I'm singing one of them) but not entirely sure what the fourth refers to. Could see a couple of the blues.

I only knew 2 of the blues, so I was left randomly guessing at the remaining two. Got them just in time!

Purple by default but it made sense once it was revealed.

Bit grumpy about that - their “right” answer for one of the blues is actually wrong.

I was that pissed off I googled to check.

Edited to say - HUBRIS! First search told me I was right but no, that’s bollocks. I was wrong.
