Explanation:

A black sheep means a person who is considered a disgrace to a particular group, usually a family.

The meaning of HUE AND CRY is a loud outcry formerly used in the pursuit of one who is suspected of a crime.

The phrase 'Easier Said than Done' is said of a task that is easier to talk about than to do.

If you say that someone is willing to go the extra mile, you mean that they are willing to make a special effort to do or achieve something.
