EDIT .,... here's the explanation which is ok but Id never heard of a gerund  !


As I looked at the remaining words, the purples jumped out. Chasing AMY, Saving PRIVATE RYAN and Leaving LAS VEGAS were all clear enough. Being JOHN MALKOVICH (a film I loved as a teenager) completed the set.


EDIT I looked up gerund as well


What are the three rules of gerund?
There are three simple rules we can use to know when to use -ing with a verb:
The gerund is used at the beginning of a sentence as the subject of the sentence. ...
We use the gerund after prepositions. ...
We use the gerund after certain verbs like suggest, recommend, avoid, risk, or enjoy


So now I know lol

[tommy toes]

One of my favourite old jokes.
Bloke at a dinner party farts
Host says GERUNDer Rover
Bloke thinks Ah, he thinks it’s the dog so lets another rip.
Host sez gerunder Rover.
Bit later he lets another one go
Host sez…. Gerunder Rover before he shits on you.

[Donnywolf]

Lost 2 on purple , right 3 ,imagined connection

[Donnywolf]

I can't spell tactically naive but I was today. 30 to nil

Spotted 3 Blues straight off but no obvious 4th

Got Y
Then lost 4 lives trying for a group ( G ) and lost

Would have been better looking for the B as my 3 were right but just tactically nutty as P was eminently gettable

Start over on Nil ... Just didn't turn up today lol

It was a game of 2 halves but only half a brain turned up

[mugnapper]

Scraped in, losing 3 lives attempting G, before changing tack.
3 x1a G
YBPG.
Found that tough today.
