There was definitely an early Fist of Fun sketch about the Lord of the Dance Settee.

a quick google tells me richard herring named a special 'lord of the dance settee' and dark settee is on a site for misheard lyrics, so there's literally dozens of us out there.

Ha, interesting effort, but a bit strained (as you say). I wouldn't trust myself to take any less than weeks to come up with something. Also, I do think you need to find something where there's a potential three-way split of opinions and where all three options have the same number of letters, and that in itself is already extremely difficult. :)

I always heard 'said he', but for a long time I thought it was/had to be 'I danced for the scribes on the faraway seas'. :)

If they'd just mass debated in the first place then it would be a moot point.

The best thing is when he says in the comments that he plans to battle again. I'd like a style clash with Soul, or an international clash with someone like Illmac.

Great news! Him Vs illmac would be 🔥.
EDIT: Not sure whether Og vs Soul would really work. Love Soul but maybe too much of a style clash. Given recent form I think Og vs Rivers would be great.

Violent dog walker pinned to the ground in dog mess after he refused to pick it up in south Warwickshire
The rude dog walker was restrained after he tried to punch the another man, before using a plank of wood and a loose paving slab as weapons
By Philip Hibble
Monday, 14th March 2022, 10:18 amAn abusive dog walker was pinned to the ground in his own dog's mess after he refused to pick it up and then then turned violent.
In a bizarre turn of events in the south Warwickshire area, the suspect did not take well to being told by another man that he should pick up his dog's mess - in fact, he tried to punch the man and then swung a plank of wood and threw a loose paving slab at him.
Warwickshire Rural Crime Team said the victim was able to dodge the punches and then restrain him, adding: "It is unfortunate for the suspect on this occasion that his victim happened to have an extensive military background and a rather impressive skill set.
"It is also unfortunate that the coordinates of where the suspect was restrained on the floor just so happened to correspond with the exact location of his animal's prior bowel evacuation."
When the police arrived, the suspect tried to run away but was caught by chasing police officers in the Alcester area.
The Warwickshire Rural Crime Team added: "This gentleman was able to reflect on this altogether unfortunate incident in a police cell after a hot shower and will no doubt continue to reflect until he attends court for assault and offences under the dog (fouling of land) act."
My best effort:

5 is a bit shit for cod and God but EOD kind of works for end of day *and* the bomb squad which is nice. You could also have EAVE/CAVE/GAVE which maybe has some kind of Santa link but I couldn't come up with a good clue. For 3 coil and warmth aren't brilliant. Coll is archaic version of embrace. Could have gone with Coll the island but couldn't link that either. ELNOO and DN also are fucked if you want to do the rest of the crossword.1 Attachment
