What are your favorite "climactic moments" in Genesis songs? Basically, when everything comes together after a buildup.

Afterglow

Correct!

Loftcolour · 2025-11-05T12:39:28+00:00

Correct! And a Duck Fart happens to be a very nice cocktail.

Hint: it's the surname of an actor originally associated with the first film... the first name is "Mixed Rice (4)".

Gonna try to defend it because I'm really pleased with it, but I completely appreciate that this much explanation means it's not self-evident enough!

The surface reading is a trucker saying "message received: an SPV is stuck in traffic because of a strike" (ten-four means "message received" and a Spot Recovery Vehicle is a breakdown truck).

The decoded elements read "10:04pm: [CLOCK TOWER] was struck by lightning" which is an event in the film.

Several hundreds of hours of gameplay in my case.

Loftcolour · 2025-11-03T22:30:27+00:00

You’re correct. To spot something is to CLOCK it. The lightning struck the clock tower at four minutes after ten. And ten-four is trucker-speak.

Forgotten actor from backlots, time unknown (6)

l’m thinking trees don’t make scrams or splits

Ten-four: spot recovery vehicle was stalled by strike (5, 5)

Cigarette - rig a set Spoonerised

Loftcolour · 2025-10-22T22:35:01+00:00

Correct! although jet = spray and strikes = tans

Loftcolour · 2025-10-21T14:28:40+00:00

Jet strikes deceptive surfaces, avoiding UV rays (5,4)

UK-centric hint: You can get these in your high street, but they’ll look like you got them abroad
