Thanks for all your help, SDKL - finished now.

22: yes, above East Anglia
20: if I remember rightly,yes, French; divided up 4,2, it would mean "but one" in French,too!

Because its another word for what we might call these days as emulsion paint.

You are most welcome. This is bloody hard today. I startted off OK early this morning but its now like herding cats.

I had a slow start, then lots went in very quickly, then a sticky finish, much aided by SDKL. I can give hints if wanted!

OK chrise !

I can't understand all the previous chat about a Japanese electronics firm for 22a...can you open that out a bit for me ?

Toshiba is the electronics company - lose OS (outsize) + ut (note) gives the answer of a page in Don carlos

SDKL explained that one for me too. UT is the original name of DOH (as in "a deer")

SDKL...I am still not sure about TOSHIBA. If its right then MAISON for 20d (A) and NON FATAL for 17d (A) can't be right. 22a (A) has been answered in Another Place as THIBAUT.

So can anyone explain TOSHIBA please.

While you are at it, I have STABILISED for 1d (A)...but now can't place anything for 13a (A) "Girl with sign for sodium flower preceding 4(B) in opera

I think the B clue is FREIA.

I went to bed with a headache yesterday after spending most of the day on this bloody puzzle and now its come back !

toshiba (electronics company) - lose the os(outsize) ... thiba... then add ut(note) gives thibaut (page in don carlos)

13a leo(zodiac sign) na (chemical symbol for sodium)
