19d Little birds time it badly and catch cold (7)
T_T_ _ _E

Any help much appreciated! I'm guessing 'tit' features somehow... but otherwise, utterly stumped!

Thanks very much Sally... and Trevor! Doubt I would have got that in a month of Sundays.

I'm also stuck on 11d: Ward Specialist needs time, say, and energy (7)
_R_T_G_

I swear there are no words that fit this! Have I made a mistake with some letters do you think?

Protege would fit the letters, but not the clue really. Are you sure of your letters?

I think it is protege as in ward. Specialist - pro, needs time - T, say - eg, and energy - E
