Thanks again Nick. I think/hope I now have the right quote and will go back to the endgame when I get chance later.

Another excellent puzzle, but I found the endgame slightly tedious - matching definitions with mere possibilities.

So for me (purely subjectively) this weekend the winner is Inquisitor - a belter, second EV - 8 out of ten, and Listener third on 7 out of ten.

Some help please with the replacement for 22dn, Warren. I’ve spent more time on this one than the rest put together.

Teenieleek, have you got the extra word, the word that defines the changed 22 D?

Codeword?

codeword = Juliet perhaps

Yes, that's it, Teenieleek. And it relates to something, abbreviations/single letters used quite often in crosswords...

Teenieleek, I see you'll have it now. I wasn't being unhelpful, just trying to help you finish it off yourself.

Thanks both. I should have got that especially with Lima being in the same puzzle.

I've been having some quite good fun matchmaking. I've put Ms Lake with Mr Cumberbatch, Mr Boorman with Ms Roberts, Mr Armstrong with Ms Rowe, Ms Day with Mr Firth a wine-sodden Duke to be cared for by Ms Nightingale, but I was struggling to find a match for Mr Beatty until I came on here, so BRAVO to all contributors. Does anybody have any whacky alternatives?
