The "sign that stings" bit is obvious but I'm missing something with "Northern Star" ...

Northern N
Star – a sign SCORPIO
that stings!
SCORPION
The idea was to confuse you into thinking about "Northern star" and "sign" rather than "Northern" and "star sign"

Which is exactly how you would spell "scorpion" if you had just been stung by one. Ergo, the whole clue is an anagram indicator! 
At least that would be my defence to your accusations if I was Griff's lawyer. Alas I am not, so off to the stocks with him!

And that it did, it confused me until I got to the end of the clue, and then it all became as clear as the night sky.

Anyone watching the show?
There is a scene in episode 2 of current season, when Bill meets the judge, which is epic.
The Judge: I've got two parking lots: one for my car, the other for everything else...
Bill: Well, you couldn't handle my best...

Did not see it, yet. Plot seems interesting, as does lead actor.

It is a TV show currently airing; adapted from a trilogy of Stephen King, featuring Brendan Gleeson.
Quite a nice piece of work.
