Not too bad this week. 14D is a bit nebulous clue and can be interpreted two ways, but solving 24A sorts out the problem. My favourite this week is:

17D Garment makes you fat when lowest part is turned in. (7)

I'll not spoil it for those who are still working at this crossword, but tell you the answer later.

John, I've finished it except for 15a. I want to put in 'femoral' meaning of the upper leg, but I cant see how it fits the rest of the clue.

I\\\'ve just seen it, brain suddenly popped!

And now my keyboard is playing up!

How cruel is that John? - Ya big tease.
A letter or two might help (for those of us who don't get the Radio Times).

Actually I did solve it, but I'm now curious about 14d.

Well it would be cruel if I were to to wear such a garment in public, so I thought it best left to the imagination. OK so you asked for it.

14D Victoria heard the truth (9)

24A Sweet money. (5)

The important part is that the eighth letter of 14D is also the fourth letter of 24A.

It's hard with no letters.
Got 24a (I think) - does this make 14d not an actress?

I rather liked 20A this week or should that be 007A (Bear with me!)

???

Hi trevor,

Yes exactly, 14D is not an actress but sounds like one. One of these could be either clues and 24A has a stick if that helps.

For the sake of completeness:

20A Bond character at station (10)

I spent a little while thinking of all the 007 characters but then realised it was the wrong Bond. That made it easy.
