4a "Extensive cock up with Oasis concert initially" (8)

?P?C?O?S Looks like it must be SPACIOUS for extensive but can't quite see the parsing.

Any help much appreciated

Anagram of up + oasis + c (concert initially). Cock is the strange anagram indicator

Archer happy to get this meal when ditching date (5). I think it's 'inner' but I can't work out the defining term. Help!

An Archer would be happy to get an Inner on the board (I think it might be the ring round the bull's eye, but that's a guess!)

Spot on, Malone. Chambers says …

inner /inˈər/
noun (archery)
(a hit on) that part of a target next to the bull's-eye

Thanks,Jono - I was fine with the archery connection, just not 100% sure of the technical details.

'Mobile'indicates you've to anagram 'meant' along with 'a' (in the clue, you missed it out!) and G, German. The answer is a tone, colour.
