Repeated thanks to those who entered clues for PASSIONATE, and repeated apologies for the ridiculous delay (life intervenes, sometimes).

My opinions are below. My judgment is below-est.

Regards,

Luciano

----------

MARK
Turned on a spot in sea-mobile (10)
ASPOTINSEA anag; def = turned on
-- I like the definition. Not the biggest fan of anagram indicators being separated from the anagram fodder by a hyphen, but I might be in the minority on this issue.

DAVID:
Sent! After Easter consumed (10)
PASSION+ATE; def = sent
-- The surface reading is a bit awkward. That the ‘Passion’ implied by Easter is essentially the root word of the answer is a failing, in my opinion.

DUKE:
Flaming idiot charged bit in pizzeria's entrance, then nibbled (10)
ASS+ION in P+ATE; def = flaming
-- It works in terms of the wordplay. The definition also fine. The surface reading is pretty stilted, though.

----------
The winner is Mark.
