      "...the isle is full of noises,
      Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
      Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
      Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

            O-spreys, O's-prays and O-sprays come to mind, but should probably be immediately dismissed.

              Nice work, Don but not what's on the card, I'm sorry ... the first two Os are intensely musical, the third deliberately marginally so, at this stage

              Even the is a clue to the first two

                            Are you referring to Olivier Messiaen, the well-known ornithologist and organist?

                              I was thinking that as well as well as cloughie, with the end of the pier clue being Laurence Olivier in The Entertainer? Edit: Not seen The Bridge yet - no spoilers please!
