26d "One is not fair" (4)- E*E* - I can only think of "Eyed"-- ? one-eyed = not fair, but I don't like it ! Has anyone got a better idea ?

The punctuation of the clue is misleading. Try reading it as One is not; fair.

thanks both of you, but I still don't like the clue - have now bought today's paper and indeed you are both correct, but I can't my head round "fair" and "even" being synonyms

even as in the sense of even-handed being impartial, just or fair
