It`s jiggery-pokery. Jiigger - dancer, poker - hot rod.

Put a Y instead of an R on poker, and you'll probably see what the answer should be :)

hi lilacwine
7a is an anagram of "I plot" for the trying out of a new show on TV

18d is a double definition: 1. how you would address a female customer 2. a bossy little girl

Hi everyone,
Now most people have finished, would someone please tell me if ataxic`is right for 20 ac ? a+ TA (territorial)
Don`t know where `xic` comes from - sounds like `sick` ?? The whole word does mean slowly but it`s not one that trips off my tongue very often ! M.
