First crossword for a while, and I'm stuck. There are several references to "our speaker" that I'm confused by. For instance 1d
Dull? Chops one that may follow our speaker (8)
I think it must be MATTHEWS. Could anyone explain the "speaker" part, please?

Actually, I think I see that one now - it refers to the long quotation.

Still don't see the others, though!

Matthews fits the clue ok
I too was wondering about "our speaker" in several clues
and 7d ties in with that answer

11a could be the follower of 1 and 7

Hi SDL
21 fits the quotation too - just 18 of the "speakers" to do (and some others not related, of course!)

Thanks elle - I had that. I think 18 must be a place, but I don't see which of the ones that I've found that fit.
