Hi Trevor, Thank you for JAMB, I am most grateful for your help.
CORRECT also seems spot on but that gives me a problem with another clue:

Leave the light off and conceal something (4,2,4)
I had KEEP IN DARK however, if CORRECT is fitted in I now have ?E?P ?T DARK KEEP AT DARK???

You're very welcome - and I've had similar experiences myself, when you just don't see something.
