NAPE

19d....Republican worker supporting priest in need of assistance....?E?I?NT

Nice clue!

R ELI ANT

......I'v seen another very similar clue recently - was it in the Radio Times?

Thanks Chrise ! but could you explain RELIANT a bit for me.

I have often see the same or very similar clues in different papers, and I have always been of the opinion that they must be the same setters, working under different names.

Hi Mikey
R for REpublican
"priest" in a crossword is almost always ELI (sometimes P or PR)
"worker" is almost always ANT

Well...that is interesting ! Thanks...those hints are going in my little black book !

Thank you for your replies.
