My last clue was for Hayle/Hale. This one is SEAMER, again though (read backwards from the S of shows). This is an exceptionally simple name to construct clues for.

Earley is not my answer.

Been away so missed the Hayle/Hale, plenty of snow though!

This is my clue:

Eddie and Frank eat grass it seems.

Grays

 

[IanD]

Exactly.

The Grays, brothers Frank and Eddie, played football (and one of them didn't get booted off Sky for making sexist comments.)

Grays sounds like graze = eat grass.

 

[Meridian richard]

Upstream for the blues

That was Andy Gray. Dodgy comments or not, he was a great player and one of the finest servants Goodison ever knew.

Hmm! Probably Mortlake then.

The light blues and the dark blues row upstream to Mortlake in the boat race!

 

[Seacook]

Atkinson or Williams by another name

Ore?

[IanD]

Ore?

Dave

That's right

The station name is 'some' of the phrase passengers may alight for East Hastings and Ore is East of Hastings.

 

[DaveHarries]

OK. Glad I got that one right. Here is one which may not last too long but it is worth a go anyway.

Part of Glastonbury and part of Birmingham

Dave
