Almost went straight in with the red herring but hadn’t heard of the fourth so held back (had to google afterwards to figure that one out!)

Fortunately I didn't see the red herring until I had solved 2 other categories, otherwise I think it would have got me.

I thought I was so clever spotting the red herring

I enjoyed that one. Bit of a stretch but not totally impossible.
