We have never had to rely so much on this site as for this crossword.

All solved and entered except Capped man in Durban died in short flood (6), which seems to go in column 5, where we have only one square available

Any help?

I have a full grid except that I don't understand how 1ac changes from DAB to DEB ; and how is ELID correct for the "articulated look" clue. It seems to be missing a letter.

Capped man is one the clues which omits OUT. The definition is "capped".

The fabulous wolf is a two-letter verb and a four-letter adjective surrounding E for energy.

IS plus fearsome = GRIM with E in the middle, look in Bradford's under WOLF

Obviously, I can't type fast enough! Thanks again. I can see I'm going to have problems putting the bars in.
