gitto - can you return the listener favour by giving me a nudge? I have a filled grid and a pattern of clashes, but ... nada. (that's courtesy alcaraz rather than the other lot.)

I saw the symmetry? And then I saw a bit not symmetrical...got me thinking. And then I thought a J is always a good start.

no need for help - got there thanks to the J hint. Fascinating what you learn!

I'm frustratingly stuck with a full grid, 12 clashes and 8 unclued letters marked, but apart from a common 5 letter forename I still don't know what I'm looking for. Any hints appreciated.

Shade your clashes and unclueds, and see a very specific symbol.

Sloth, there are 10 unclued letters, 4 at the top and 6 at the bottom of the 12 clashes. There are two 5 letter forenames that are the Christian and surname of one of the individuals. Both the individuals are actually the same person.

BTW cockie, sorry I didn't reply but I unfortunately decided to go out and watch the inevitable!
