Afternoon each, God I'm showing my advanced maturity. Was it Beryl Reid who used to introduce herself that way? That's not why I'm here though.
Unusually I'm stuck in several places but perhaps some help with these two will unlock the blockage up top.
9d TV presenter made to cart one into swamp. (6,6). I have _E_R_E/_O _ __. I've a feeling there's an anagram in there somewhere but...
20ac Crime drama for for serfs to disrupt. (9,1) I have _R_ _ _S _ _ _/_
I'm sure that is an anagram the indicators are the but... Your help deeply appreciated. Thanks in anticipation.

20. You need three letters meaning For, then the 'serfs to' gets anagrammed (disrupt).

OMG Thanks Malone. I wouldn't mind unusually I watched the entire series of that programme and the title never even crossed my mind. Coincidentally Ben Miller was on Radio 4 reading excerpts from a book on George III, so I'm presuming I have find a presenter of that ilk. Thanks again.

THanks, Dandybandy. I'd never heard of the 9,1 answer, but at least I knew/knew of the other one.
