Forgot to add the word length, sorry. (8,4,7)

Redhouse Lane Swallet? (Not RL Swallett, then?)

 

[Tritim230]

Well done

Pontiff's minor problem, according to Spooner, in a Yorkshire pothole (4,5)

 

[Fulk]

'Appen it's time for a clue: Consider who the pontiff is, then think of what a Spoonerism is – and it should give you the first letter of the second word.

 

[andys]

Is there a Sope Pitch somewhere?

 

[Fulk]

You're getting very close, andys

 

[ChrisB]

I've failed to find a Yorkshire Pothole with a Hope Pitch, but that would otherwise fit the clue.

 

[Fulk]

P-2 in Strans Gill Pot is called Hope (Pitch) – so over to you, ChrisB.

The first three pitches of SGP are called Faith, Hope and Charity – maybe because you need faith in your ability to get back up P-1, you need hope for P-2, and – according to the bible – 'the greatest of these three (faith, hope and charity) is charity' P-3 being a big pitch in a large rift.

 

[ChrisB]

I like Fulk's Spoonerist approach - if the (in)famous Bishop were to be employed auctioning redundant props from recent blockbuster film, he could end up trying to sell this other Yorkshire pothole... (4,3)

 

[Fulk]

Barbie huh? So . . . . Link pot?

 

[ChrisB]

Link Pot indeed - back to you

Excellent, snebbit – over to you!

 

[snebbit]

Ah someone else have a go, I'm crap at making these

 

[andys]

OK try this....

"Another way into a classic makes a decent answer." ( 5,8 )

 

[ChrisB]

Wades Entrance?

 

[andys]

Indeed. Over to you.....
