Thanks for all the clues. I've enjoyed the game..

I've got 19/20 but I've been stuck on the table with the comedy books for ages 😅

Someone earlier said it's what you'd say to start a joke ... something like I've got a ..... ..... for you'

I'm still annoyed about the box not being The Northern Lights. Or even the Box of delights.

Finally finished. This thread always comes in so handy.

Got it! Thank you

I tried box of delights too.

I've finished, i enjoyed that.
Needed a few clues from here, so thanks for the help!

Done them all except the ghost ! Completely stuck on that one even with the clues on here !

So nearly there. Can’t get the quartet one. Neopolitan ice cream is all that comes to mind. 🤦‍♀️

Etonmessy - try words that also mean come in or go in

Is the ghost relevant?

Very close my brilliant friend!

Yes. That is the other word!

Yes.

I’m close but I’ve put every combo I can think of. The. A. Series. Novels. Aaaahhhh

You're on the right track. It's the name of a collection/series of books.

Everything I’ve seen just describes them as the neopolitan quartet. It’s not that. 🤦‍♀️

Me too! I was even trying to see if one had a very long thumb... 😉

50% right

Series
books
collection
novels
or is flipping neopolitan wrong too????

How have I got all the other 19 but completely stumped on this one 😩

I've got 15 - stuck on cocktail one, child dressed as ghost walking through door, the "Workshop: writing women" one, the corporal with the smiling hat, mirror (or magnifying glass), saucepan and spool of wool (cotton reel?) with needle (darning needle?) and the barbershop quartet. I tried "Slaughterhouse-five", as I gather a barbershop quartet features in that, but no luck! For the Sherlock Holmes one, look at the overall scene as well as the details.
