Having used the threads to get me going - I'm stuck on 3
1ac Places echo after shell goes off in coup (6)P---C-?
2d Kick or pull by the ears (3)--E?
29ac Sculptor drops in in military cap mainly to conform (4,4)K-E-,S-E-?
Explanations as well as answers appreciated, as I'm trying to learn!

is the last one Keep Step, which seems like 'conform'?

the sculptor and military hat (which are almost= partially used) are Epstein and Kepi (like a French Policeman or Foreign Legionnaire)

Thanks Twm
So is the sculptor ep? How does the rest work?

Brilliant - thank you - I think this particular cryptic was a bit ambitious for me!

Thanks again - had a brainwave and managed to sort the final 2 all on my own!

So you have toe and putsch?

Yes!
Really chuffed I sorted - the help is great, but sometimes it also acts to kick your brain back into action!

Yes. Sometimes this site is handy just for reassurance - or to explain why the answer is what you've worked it out to be!!
