Ok, I think I've got everything, but where there should be an S for the author's name, I've got an M for "spy" (m)OLE ? Also, in the previous clue, is it "gey" - a Scottish equivalent of 'gay'?

I've just realised that the S comes from "HI(s)" so that's all good.

I do have a problem still with the very first letter of the 19 - it should be a 'T' but I've got a D from "Admit those not at university" as (d)OWN - how does this become a T?

Also, still not sure about the Y in "rather Scottish".

Brendan, ‘Town’ as in the difference between town and gown in University cities.

I see it now, it is a T - 4th definition in Chambers.

Got it, thanks Cloverjo.

My 1st group of extra letters don't seem to make any sense ...where have i gone wrong? ....IRDSTAN?A?B

Xwordfan, most of those are correct! You need ??IRD for the first word, then STAN?A is the second. (additional ?B are wrong, there's no more!

Thanks Malone .... i was thinking banal instead of anal for obsessive ....hence the B ...sorted now.

Xwordfan, glad that little nudge helped - you were obviously not far away.

This puzzle really was an absolute work of art:)
