Clive.
Total to be added or subtracted.

Argon +10
RF +9
Hygienic Dispenser +4
Taff +3

There's no sign of Colony-Collapse Disorder in this vigourous and energetic bunch of buzzers - not a single klaxon!
Plucked from obscurity but with that devilish twinkle in one of his compound eyes sure to turn a girl's probosis, the cutest drone of the Hive, He's QI Royalty now - It's Argon with +10.
The busiest worker who gets all the drudgery and none of the credit - but not today, in a nail-biting 2nd place, it's RF with +9
Sweeter than honey, pollen a respectful third place, it's HD with +4 (pollen, geddit? like pollin' - oh nevermind! )
Well that's that quiet enough waxing lyrical from me.
I should rally bee-have and make a bee-line for the exit. (no, quite right madam. He is awful )
