Who lured whom into misreading the situation by boxing clever?
A few lurking klaxons but ample opportunities for a QI bonus. I am in a good mood today.

Anything to do with Shakespeare's 'Merchant of Venice' - all that glisters is not gold...

Taff :Sudoko
brilliant I wish I had thought of that but I didn't so that makes it a no.
Teasswill :Merchant of Venice
that's a good match too but again that's a no.

Actually Teasswill, looking at your answer again I think I will give you a DGI+1 as you are heading in the right direction.
I told you I was in a good mood.

Not Blair or Iraq in any sense. But Quite Interestingly there is a QI bonus awaiting a link to a prime minister who is not himself any part of the answer.

churchill by letting hitler bomb the crap out of coventry, eventhough he knew it was comming just to preserve the secret that we had cracked the german codes, and the sacrifice of coventry saved many allied lives and shortend the war

No but you are correctly continuing the literary connection.

No and nowhere close as I am in a peace love and sunshine mood. So calm down Taff and think beautiful thoughts of flowers and stuff!

Taff you are far better at finding them than I am at setting them.
Not Noel Edmunds
Not any game shows
Although Crinkley Bottom could be a very obtuse lead.

Was it anything to do with keeping the rare white rhino's safe by colouring them the same as black rhino's.
Or even John Gray, the owner of Spearmint Rhino?

Nothing to do with animals.
Or even John Gray, the owner of Spearmint Rhino?
I had to Google that reference (Honest!)
and no it isn't BUT although it has nothing to do with stripping, I stress that to avoid a potential Taff onslaught a gentleman's club is a step in the right direction, so to continue my sunny theme of love to all mankind today, a DGI+1

Interestingly, black rhinos and white rhinos are the same colour. White rhinos are really "wide rhinos", because they have big wide lips. Black rhinos have a thin pointed upper lip. They're not "white rhinos", so they must be black.
