Am dreadful at clues - glad you got there.

Got it Jack - nice

I had no trouble with getting 21ac, but am struggling to solve 3,16 Throne's occupant left in 2011, according to a 2 1, initially upset with Augustus
I have ????e?s ??x?m??. I know what a 2 1 is but don't think this one. Any hints?
I too cannot work out why many of the answers are right.

I think it's GLUTEUS MAXIMUS

Anag. of AUGUSTUS + MMXI (2011) but not sure about the LE

Sorry, the L is from Left and the Def. is Throne's occupant (Your posterior!)

E for Emperor perhaps?

Hi Brendan
Many thanks. I think you are right. The l comes from left. I'm left with an e I can't explain.

I think that's it Mamya. I don't have the puzzle so I'm curious to know what a '2,1' is.

Thanks Mamya. I think you are right

hywel, sorry I missed your earlier post. Glad you have it now. brendan 2,1 is "Roman Emperor" - all genuine (if somewhat obscure) except for the "occupant of the throne".
