      that clue for ONE is so so good. Could I ask for an explanation for FIVE, please? I can parse every other clue but I can't see the wordplay for this one.

        Sweet store is a HIVE then take the head back twice H->G->F. I'm not sure what this type of clue is called but have seen it a few times. Thanks for the solve!
