A hint? It is ultimately an anagram, but there are in fact 3 pointers to the word:- first of all, China - cockney rhyming slang; then tea, the word "told" is one of the extraneous words referred to in the preamble - asnd lastly the anagram. Now - you have to get it.

Thanks AJT - all clear now. Had the answer but couldn't see it! The China bit had me flummoxed since the answer is in the wrong continent. Good one, Dumpynose.

I thought it was a great puzzle all round - so many clever clues - I loved 35d.

Hi. Everybody else seems to have finished this, and I've got there without asking for help until now. I'm struggling with the word play for 15d and 27a. I'm sure it's absolutly obvious, but my brain is ready for the weekend. Any help would be gratefully received.
Many thanks

Hi Laura
27a Pink- Eye - Problem with 'lamps'(eyes)
KEY (vital) in PINE (wood)

15d Bob Royal - Pela - anagram of Pale ( whiter shade of !)

That's great thanks k. I'm learning from the master-just very slowly. Wishing you a good weekend.
