I think I'm beat. The clues aren't even making any sense anymore!

JassyRadlett · 14/11/2024 12:50

I'm finished. Phew!

The guy dressed as a bee I got immediately it's a bestseller

I'm at 13/20. Currently stuck on:
The singers
The cocktail - actually driving me mad because I think I know what cocktail its referring to and I keep getting it wrong
The young girl in the angel costume
The guy dressed as a bee
The comedy books
The workshop poster
And the guy reading at the desk

The cocktail is the place...

Nousernameforme · 14/11/2024 12:51

And it's not manhatten

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 14/11/2024 12:52

Now on 8

Beansandneedles · 14/11/2024 12:52

@JassyRadlett can I get a clue for the angel and the singers please? The bit about ice cream and red strings isn't helping me 😅

Elliania · 14/11/2024 12:52

Ah ha! I was putting in the whole thing, not just the place. Thanks!
Got the comedy books as well

Schnitzelvontum · 14/11/2024 12:52

I'm finished too!

Nousernameforme · 14/11/2024 12:52

I've got 2 more to go
Singers I don't get the relevance of the colours and workshop poster isnitnsupposed to look like the comedian cause I keep trying Katherine Ryan and its not working

Nousernameforme · 14/11/2024 12:54

Pmd you @Beansandneedles

Allnewtometoo · 14/11/2024 12:56

Just the comedy one left.

@Nousernameforme I thought the colours looked like neopolitan ice cream....they do.

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 14/11/2024 12:56

I can't get the cocktail I've put the state in

Sebsaloysius · 14/11/2024 12:56

I had to Google books with a certain word in the title for the box one - and I'm mortified to say I'd never heard of this book 😯

If you're the kind of young female who needed help with a big crime, what kind of book might really help?
The title has 6 words and it's YA fiction from 2019

Oh ffs!! Got it!!

Whoever said it was awful was right 😂

xlexiix · 14/11/2024 12:57

I have 9 left and I am floundering I have no clue on the poster the map or the panda 🤦🏼‍♀️

Beansandneedles · 14/11/2024 12:57

DONE!!!

Thanks so much for the help everyone :D this was fun!

InMySpareTime · 14/11/2024 12:58

The panda makes sense if you've seen the book cover. It's about the stuff the panda is eating and how that can change meaning.

What do they write on attraction maps where the green arrow is.
Panda is a book about punctuation from the early 2000s doesn't have panda in title
Still need poster

Ok that is the one I will fixate on for the rest of the day 😂

The map is a recent book, a bestseller, blue cover

It's also a classic joke, which is where the panda comes in.

The version of it I know would definitely be cancelled by now...

Allnewtometoo · 14/11/2024 13:02

The poster is also related to the wartime woman flexing her bicep, if that makes sense.

Please for the love of all things holy, soneone help me with comedy!!
