6 dn. Cradling baby initially, voice calmer. Firstly is 'i' the 7th letter and any more help would be great.

Hi Barny
The 7th letter isn't i, though I'm baffled by why it is what it is!
"Calmer" is a noun

15,9 seems to have a very loose definition!

Must have a wrong answer for 15,9.

I liked 15, 9 - I thought it was a clever clue

As usual you are all way ahead of me. Is 6d an 8 letter homophone for 'calmer' after the first letter?

Hi zozozo
But shouldn't it be "seeing" rather than "looking"?

btw could i have a hint for my last, please
16a Denounce grand sporting feat (4)
S?A?
I have a word meaning "denounce", and a "grand", but no explanation for the other three letters

No - "calmer" is the definition

The solution is a synonym of denounce that follows grand - it’s definition is sporting feat

I thought the use of looking was fine - and less obvious than if seeing had been used

Maybe my 4ac is wrong. Is the answer to this the same as a well known desk top publishing programme?
