Looks like I was the only one who went for the bucket of red herring.

I did too!

PBD also. No clue.
Don't think many Brits would have got that.
Also, googled answer and not really accurate?

I got purple first but assumed it must be a red herring! Damn-a potential reverse rainbow...

Peridot1 · 09/01/2025 07:16

I got purple sort of once they were all that was left.

Annoying slip in the greens, saw purple immediately once I was down to the last eight.

wasn't very satisfied with purple today. Sometimes it's a bit of an 'aha!' moment but today not so much
