51, green can be "naive".

The slang word "gertcha" for "kindly leave".

Just 30d left now: "Broadcaster of the truth used to be cut short" (5)

S?W?R Looks like should be SOWER for broadcaster, but again can't see the parsing.

So, the truth and Wer(e), used to be (cut short - remove the last letter).

Gooner, I forgot to say - I agree with you about Gertcha! That meaning - kindly leave - isn't what I took the word to mean.

Hello, Gooner and Malone!
I have not ever heard the expression "gertcha" used!
So maybe it is incorrect, or you have a nice polite setter!

Rusty - and Gooner too - I had to look up 'Gertcha' in Chambers to find the meaning. The 'get away (along, off) with you! come off it! clear off!...' are all more polite versions of what I thought it meant!

Hello, Malone,

Think Chas and Dave had a song called "Gertcha".
