1A: What Robin Archer did? 4,4,5

Kill cock robin

Thanks a million would never have gotten that.

Not a good clue. Think it should have read "What sparrow archer did"

thought cock robin's killer was "the sparrow with his bow and arrow" or are we talking something other than the children's rhyme?

I agree siamcat. Can you come up with a different answer, or will we agree to cut some slack for a nonagenarian setter?

hehe yes of course - was just wondering to myself if "Robin" was a lost member of the Ambridge clan that I missed

Down to last few and really stuck:
6d stroke the one that gets the stern one of them: o-r-
27d this does give a dose of it: ---s--
14d sounds like what the late herod was: ov-r---
Thanks to all for help

14d. overdue. sounds like over jew.

6d. oars.
