Well Chris - hope you've not got your coat just yet as I am totally up the creek with the waders and scientist at 27a. Perhaps I can't spell his name but I've got: -e-r- to fit in with the anagram of rteesg at 24d. A steer would be much appreciated. Ta

Hi rose
letters are correct for 27. See the more rcent thread for more hints.

Your anagram gives waders - they're white herons.

Hi everyone
I'm stuck on top left corner; can't get 1d, 4d and12ac
1d. One now remembered going, having heard fellow go for drinks (6). I have ?I?K??, but I'm not sure about the I as I can't see how 1ac parses.
4d. Country with good local network, finally? I've got ?C?L?N?, for which Iceland fits, but I can'see why and it depends on my answer to 1ac.
12ac. Topless females on tail of 30s killer? They tremble and quiver. I have ???E?S.
Any hints gratefully received.

Hi griffin
Factorise "30" for 7ac; change E to A.

1dn What's the theme?

Hi again roof
Do you have 30? That should give you the first three letters.
