Lack of interest shown by Nixon, in a word (7,5) ??????? D????

Nothing Doing (Nix=nothing, nothing ON)
Sorry if my explanation's rubbish!

No that's great, thanks malone. I'd looked at @nothing Doing' and discounted it because I couldn't fit Nixon into it.

Need just the parsing explained on these, I think they're both correct (apologies if not)

Shout of exclamation as hot news received by old style boozers(7) HOSANNA - Why 'boozers'?

AA?

Yeah thanks andyc, that's it.

I'm sure Phillip or Trevor can explain Brendan but no = drama in my crossword dictionary!

Thanks andyc, I wondered if it was something like that but I put 'drama' into 'Thesaurus.com' and 'No' was nowhere to be found.
