A quick google search of the first two words in the clue will show you if you're right

Sorry Lynnyloo, maybe I'm being obscure

'Pissed' indicates it's an anagram, which you have solved correctly
His Majesty's is the definition, and 'now' indicates that the name was once a different name

Just two to go but they upset some of the others!
3d Mean Bottom or Scrooge? (9) Tightwads?
but then
13a Dicky, on going arse over tip, gets tender (5)
????a if 3d is tightwads b ut could it be OFFER?
and then all this really upsets
18a/1d Balls possibly in line of fire from such an unthinking response (8,8)
Kneejerk Reaction?

Santa Maria!

Help please!

Help please:

15a. 'Arse wobbled in true style, darling' (8)

I have T?E?E?R?

and 22d. 'Guardsman finally eases off penetration' (5)

H?T?Y

Though I'm not convinced I have the right letters!

Hi morgana
Second E in the first one is wrong, I think. It's an anagram.

I've worked out the other one now. The H is wrong.

Pleased you've worked it out. I guess I'll just have to go back to square one. Ah well, thanks anyway.
