    The other one nobody got

    I thought everybody in the group got that

    That’s a clue by the way, although it is a bit groany so don’t get your hopes up.

    Ok, but this

    Junkyard – lazarus

    To help you the

    God running amok [8]
    your clue is its a proper noun so capitalised

    Capitalised has a meaning that will make you go DOH when you get it It is a capital [letter] to start to be clear but it has more than one meaning here.

    I only got it because i had some letters in it I dont think i would have got it from the clue alone

    is still bugging me. Capital = Finance? a capital crime? A capital ship? A capital city (which would be a proper noun)? And why is it important if it’s not in the original clue?

    God. Could be one of many many.

    Running = On, or Managing, or Flowing, or…?

    Amok generally implies an anagram, but of what? Actually Running could mean an anagram of Amok, I think, which leaves four letters.

    apologies for not helping but this should be enough

    A capital city (which would be a proper noun)? And why is it important if it’s not in the original clue?

    I said the capital bit as without letters I think it too hard so was trying a cryptic clue
