Hahaha! One of my favorite scenes!

"No, my dog does not bite."

See, now what you've done. Cluedo (I assume long "o") makes me think of 'Clouseau,' *snort* which always leads *snort, chortle* fits of irrational exuberance in me.

"Does your dog bite?"

*over come by apoplectic fit of laughter*
Gasp,help...!

Well, I had a bit of a clue but I dropped it and reesetee picked it up. Oh, and perhaps see isihac, shag pile and the list clueless balls for the full connect. However, avoid the page schadenfreudgeon for it's a cred herring.

Clue got expanded into a movie at some point in the 80s. It's the only movie I know of with three different endings.

Clue is a crime fiction board game originally published by Waddingtons in the United Kingdom in 1948. It was devised by Anthony E. Pratt, a solicitor's clerk and part-time clown from Birmingham, England. It is now published by the United States game and toy company Hasbro, which acquired its U.S. publisher Parker Brothers as well as Waddingtons.

The game is set in a mansion, with the board divided into different rooms. The players each represent a character who is a guest staying at this house, whose owner, Dr. Black (Mr. Boddy in the North American version), has been found murdered. Players attempt to solve the murder. The solution to the murder requires the three components of Suspect, Weapon, and Room.
