Shunted

Thank you scorpjo. Glad someone was still awake. Should have got shunted but never heard of the island.

Sorry scorpiojo. Tablet changed my word for me.

Grateful for any help with last couple.
Type of ship returned for artist. P??????

Is "Old Hindu fellow with a pair of spectacles" GANDHI? And if so, why?

The first is an artist. The second isn't Gandhi - the word is better known as a type of penguin.

Thank you ChrisE.
A new word to me but I can now see it is actually a rather good clue!

I've finished all except the seven letter X. I have filled in the grid so I have XI?S?A?. Can anyone help? What is an american husband?

I really enjoyed this xword as I like alphabeticals. I found my crossword companion book a better source of islands than googling.

American husband is just USH

OK i know I'm late to this one; but having read all the thread it seems worse than Maskarade's clues!!

I'm stuck on C clue, (4). D clue - old record player.
I clue (5) I assume it's "Isles" but can't parse it ( & can't find it's place in my grid!)

Is L clue Lundy? if so why? P clue - all I can think of is Painter/Pisarro/ Picasso - none of which I can parse! & finally X clue, American husband - I've no idea.

Thanks for Q - monarch's address - tho' obviously never heard of it!

If any one can be bothered helping - Ta in advance v. much!
