One and all. 1 across is giving me gyp. I am sure the answer is scrumpy for the strong booze but I can't get anything for 3down - run around with nothing on as 12 across is cyber warfare

Your 1a is correct.

3d. Run around with nothing on and frig about? That's common (7)

Anagram of RUN, one letter ‘nothing’, three letters reversal of a word for ‘frig’ (crosses with the Y from cyber).
Definition is “common”.

Senior Conservative leaders, first letters of these words - SC + RUMPY (=arselike) so I agree the word must be SCRUMPY.

Stuck on this one: 8d. For each preferred charge; execute!

I have P?R?E???T?

or possibly P?R?E?O?T? depending on the accuracy of my 15a answer.

Just can't make sense of it!

Good Grief! Why didn't I get that? Maybe I should go back to concise crosswords...

(It also means 15a is wrong - grrr.)

Thank you, Malone.
