souse wrote colonel bogey march

[Mamyalynne]

//The “Colonel Bogey March” is a British march that was composed in 1914 by Lieutenant F. J. Ricketts (1881–1945) (pen name Kenneth J. Alford), a British Army bandmaster who later became the director of music for the Royal Marines at Plymouth.//

[saintstim]

No he didn't mallyh as mamyalynne has kindly pointed out ( although I am a bit concerned that the setter might think he did).

[Mamyalynne]

That is a possibility.

[JJ109]

A very very long shot

Bogey is slang for a detective or police officer

Detective Inspector "?" was played by John Thaw, and has the same surname as the inventor of a famous CODE.

I think that's a wonderful answer JJ. I wonder could the setter have possibly worked that out. It's better than my answer. The only one I'm stuck on is 17. Reportedly a good-looking chap from Hinkley via York (6). Any ideas please?

[JJ109]

Here you are Kustard

[saintstim]

Thanks JJ109 but I think that answer has already been used by another question( an endeavour can help).

[JJ109]

Rats! - but I think you are correct Saintstim - my answer was always a bit "doubtful".

[JJ109]

I doubt if it is correct, but Morse's oppo also fits

However, I think this is very unlikely

[smouse]

It is the setter who has requested clues only

[JJ109]

My apologies Smouse - Sainstim asked for clues and I remembered for my first answer... but unfortunately forgot for my subsequent suggestions!

[mallyh]

theres a poem called boogey man by tesla Blackburn so could the answer be tesla?

[smouse]

No problem I guessed you didn't realise it was the setter

[Mexican18]

I got an email this morning about question 11.,telling me that it had been made void so I suspect that they made the same mistake as I about Sousa!

[KUSTARD]

Thanks JJ for my answer for 17. Sorry about your "Morse" answer. I thought it really good and I didn't realise I'd already got it!!!!! Can we give up on Bogey-man then? How do we know if they've been voided?

[Mamyalynne]

Thanks Mexican.

[saintstim]

Thanks mexican18. I can stop racking my brains for it now then.

[mallyh]

see my post at 1300 I thought it was quite good x
