Lots of googling and hints were used. Did work purple out in the end.

Thank you to my DCs who are home this weekend and absolutely helped me crack this. Although worrying they were straight in with the purples 😬

if I had known all four yellows instead of just three this would have been straightforward. Thankfully I got purple after a long time pondering various wrong connections.

I knew yellows and chanced on blues. The purple connection doesn’t jump out at me for all 4 words - which reminds me - what was canter yesterday as a religious figure ?

A bit of googling then some lucky guesses.
