Thank-you. Not a theme of which I have any knowledge.

A strange one today. I'm left with four interlocking clues at the top:
12A Like our canines, can get bored . (9) ?r???a?l?
3D .... wrongly lied about 6 (6) d?p???
8D Explosive speech in The Mitre (9) ?e???r?s?
11A Satellite dish rented out, without Sky having the deal, initially (6) ?e?e??

Strong hints welcomed!

12A Think dentist
3D Anagram round one of the 6s
I am stuck on the other two

12a canines (teeth) can be "bored" so they are *****able

8d High Explosive (initially) + another word for "speech" = what a mitre is

Thanks, cerasus and griffin. I get 3D but am still at a loss as to what it has to do with magnets, unless it's the aerial!

11a is a satellite (moon of Neptune)

Thanks, cerasus. I get it all now - apart from the parsing of 11A!

@ cymro definitions of 3d

1 one of a pair of equal and oppositely charged or magnetized ***** separated by a distance.

Chemistry
a molecule in which a concentration of positive electric charge is separated from a concentration of negative charge.

2.
an aerial consisting of a horizontal metal rod with a connecting wire at its centre

re 11a I think it is anagram of "dish rented" minus the initial letters of Sky Having The Deal
