18a) Old Communist's struggle with movement after unexpectedly big reverses (8)
?O???T?C

Also can't parse 10a properly:
Romeo embraced by stage heroine who's hard to understand? (7)
I have Garbler, which l think is Betty Grable plus an R, but it doesn't quite gel!
Thanks in advance :o)

Glad I could help, Rozbogs.

PS Hedda Gabler is a stage character (in a play of the same name) rather than an actress.
