I badly need help down in the bottom left corner. Baffled in particular with 26a and 17a.

26 for "queen" think chess
17 read backwards. The "nothing" is a coarse abbreviation!

HI Chrise

I too am stuck in that bottom left hand corner. I'm afraid your hints haven't helped me. Is Queen the definition for 26ac. I thought it would be cheers. I may have just got this one.

I'm not sure what you mean by a coarse nothing for 17ac. Again I'm not sure of the definition.

I also could do with some help for 23ac. I think I have been put off by guessing an answer for 15d, which I now think must be wrong. I get the following crossers T?R? O?F ?V with my guess, but none of them help with the across clues.

I might come to it fresh in the morning.

The only letter correct in your 15d is T.

23 A murder of ????(s)

17 Sweet 1,1,...

17 definition is 'add'

Hi Chrise

Finally getting 26ac meant that my guess for 15d was wrong. I've now finished and understand your reference to a coarse nothing.

26 definition is cheers. Ends with a 5 letter American Oscar winner
