I’ve started my jigsaw, but seem to have a six letter word (near bottom left) ending with a V. There’s not too many of those so have I gone wrong? Without giving too much away....

Hi Lumen,

there is a 6 letter word near the bottom left but the V is the 4th letter.

Thanks for very quick responses. I'm now out walking all day, will resume the battle tonight, watching Last Night of the Proms!

That was an enjoyable solve, with the penny dropping just at the right moment for me. But I can't make any sense of the wordplay to the last clue....can anyone enlighten me?

Hi blacksaint, there's an uncommon, but in Chambers, 3 letter abbreviation removed from the beginning to provide the entry.

Thanks ginge

I’m still confused about clue 5. I can see a 5 letter word for enclosure but can’t see how the radical fits in to make an obvious word for justification.

I have clue 5 as 3 letter synonym of radical + 3 letter abbrev for enclosure + e

Hi Unclued,
The first 3 letters of the word is/are in Chambers as a synonym of 'excellent'. Radical is also a word for excellent. 'Enclosure' is a 3-letter abbreviation, + E(nglish)

Thanks very much both of you.
