perhaps ash-hole is in the other grid?
Do you have the other 2d answer?

I'm assuming the answers are inserted in standard clue order. In which case neither answer for 3dn (both 7 letters) fits if flan is 1across as neither answer begins with A. Or am I on the wrong track here?

I believe the answer in column 2 starts in row 2.
The French person starts in col 3 and begins with a. Neasden in column 4. Pakistani and Man start in Col1 but above atoning.

Hi Teenieleek,

There is a Down answer in each column but they don't all start from the top.

FLAN/NEASDEN is a match.

Also each grid has a different layout so for instance 3 Down is in a different place in each one.

Thanks pkd, that's what I was trying to establish. so e.g. The believer could be in column two? It was just that the preamble says "clues are given in standard form".

Forget that last, I've got it. Never does this sort before, that's my excuse for thickness anyway.

Need hint on two.
Aussie’s sweet, pert talk, mostly about west

Who’s fashioned this bit of metal aerial

Thanks.

sorry can't think of a hint ... it may be wrong anyway...chiack seems to fit at the beg of row 3 ..can't parse though.

Can you help with answers 2a and 3a please? (haven't got any of those at all)

on 2nd thoughts chiack doesn't look right...think it has to be 5 letters not 6

Hi Sunray,

Def = Aussie's sweet (as in confectionery). West Indian = WI inside where you might very well have confectionery

All in one clue. Anagram of one word in the clue with the start of another. Whole clue is the definition
