Hi Bunty,

2a is one of the single clues. Do you remember the advert for washing machines "the appliance of science"? Def is Muslims, Half of a word for touchy/easily offended around an abbr for America

3a Clue divides at West/Maine. Old-fashioned word for bathing (not in the washing sense). Next one is def=confusion, abbr for Maine

Thanks pkd ... will work on those

Help please with 10d both:
Forename of actor filling other role: Henry, preceded by special royal title of respect
and 10a both:
Dismisses university groups banning electronic location device (no time for up-to-date skill)

Hi Xwordfan,

10d. Clue splits at Role/Henry. First part is a hidden clue, name of swash-buckling film star of old.Second is def= title of respect, Henry=H,special=S

10a Split Electronic/Location. First part def=dismisses, initials for a university, word for groups minus E. Second part def=location device (think wartime)

Thank you pkd ... very helpful! Got those now

hi pkd,
Thanks for all the hints.
Finally getting a chance to get back to solving.
It would help if you also give the length of the answers.I

Henry Special,not sure about the word ROYAL. What si the interpretation?

Also for the bottom grid , 1d starts at Row 1 or Row 2?

Thanks.

10d 5 and 4 Henry special ... the other 2 letters are abbrev for King
10a 5 and 5

1d must start on the top row....otherwise clues wouldn't be in order.....do you mean column 1 or 2?

It starts in col 1
