What a nailbiter!!!
I'm learning the art of the cryptic and these videos are a huge help. I must admit I feel intensely proud on the rare occasions that I manage to figure out a clue before you!
Englander chases answer, briefly perturbed.. (9)
Skara Brae and old ancient settlement in Scotland. The first time I got a clue before you!! Its also one of the towns in the old video game Ultima Online! I'm terrible at crosswords, but I love watching your channel.

A challenge but you got there in the end, as always! Nicely done!

I kept yelling 'çount the number of letters'
Even if the number of letters was correct, the wordplay would mean that the “o” had to come at the end, which it clearly didn’t
So so happy you managed to get SKARA BRAE at the end there. Thank you for another fantastic solve. I am just starting out learning myself and the ease with which you appear to solve most of these puzzles is an inspiration.
