9a: eyebrow= feature
homophone of " 'ighbrow" - East End intellectual

Good morning to you both and many thanks.

13a: number one
double definition?
a "wee" is a "number one" - and "at the top" also means "number one"
but I don't see where "lassie" fits in?

Chambers has "girl" (slang) under "number".
Anne Bradford has "number" under "girl".

from the i blog just now

NUMBER ONE
Triple definition: to have a wee is to have a number one + one’s lass(ie) is one’s number one, sweetheart + e.g. (the) number one (single) is at the top of the charts

Thank you, Cerasus!
