Can anybody think of anything better than Whiskers for No.7? The clue is "Moves quickly without hesitation for people to beat" Can't quite parse the people to beat bit.

[bobbinwales]

A person who beats things with a whisk is a whisker??

[Maxymax464]

Thanks bobbinwales. Reckon that's it!

[Hazlinny]

7. Whiskers ... moves quickly = whisks + er for hesitation.
There is the saying you beat someone by a whisker (e.g. in a race).

Hi could somebody explain how you get the answer 24 is mullet? Is it just because a mullet fish is “nearly cylindrical” (???) or is there something I’m missing? Thanks.
