As I said in a previous clue, think of a famous TV mule from years ago and add to it the abbreviation for ever. That's how I got it although my friend, who also does these quizzes, knew it as her mother had a beautiful silver one stolen when the house was burgled. Funny where we get our answers from sometimes.

Time for confession - I've only been doing crosswords for 40 years, but I don't actually own a Chambers. Shock horror. I guess I'll have to buy one to get at those pesky policemen, unless someone takes pity on me.

Famous 5 Just like all the clues have been telling us, the second word is a nickname for police, could be loose change or bronze coins....I found the answer in Chambers in the reference library. Daren't give the very obvious clue for first word but it's not dry.

Hi twinsnan,
Like you, I am still looking for a few - 7 to be precise, 6 of which are the ones you are after.
The only one I have amongst your "missing" ones is
79. An old codger and a type of bottle (clue)
