(e)rse in Colette - corselette

I've got that as "corselette", the author being Colette?

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Have only 1ac and the two golden anniversary related clues to get

Any clues re the golden anniversary would also be appreciated

Timothy west & prunella Scales - christian names spelled out as suggested by the clues

Thank you. I had spicas but hadn't heard of the word and couldn't see a meaning for it anywhere. I'll have another look now.

Thanks for the anniversary - I'm off to see where the Christian names come in now

I would love to know where the Christian names are spelled out and what the references to 'previous row' and 'row above' indicate - very slow here today.

OK....Any hints on 9A? I have " -A-A-A"

The Christian names are spelled out literally in the row above and the previous column, but in the direction indicated by the respective answer.
