Good Afternoon. Sorry for being a bit late today. Here are this week's clues. No. 5 "may" prove a wee bit difficult. I always regrat thinking this. LOL. Happy solving! J

I set crossies just for pleasure. I wonder if some of you excellent regulars would like to try a few of my clues? Since they're new, no letters!

Please withhold solutions till 5 pm (GMT) to allow others to have a go.


1. Not one contracted form of broadcasting and it has harmful content (5,1,3)

2. Disagreeable as it may be, breed out sensitivity to pain (7)

3. Being restricted by one who’s up to no good is not possible (2,2)

4. West African one-liners are a riot (6,7)

5. Office of an ancient British chief to write to press (loosely) perhaps? (13)


I'm taking a break for Easter Week. No 5@5 till a fortnight from today. Happy Easter all!
John.

Hi jolan
Just had a quick look before going out. I think I see #3 and #4.
Happy Easter, in case I don't speak to you later.

Oh good. Only see two right off (hm- maybe three). Have to leave in a bit, but hope to be back by closing time.

I got 3 and 4 quickly but I've stalled. No. 2 seems straightforward but it won't yield answer for me.
