if i'm right, it is;
Socially unacceptable = non-u
slave almost = serf, without the last letter.

Many thanks and for all your help explanations. At last finished has only taken from Thursday. As explained earlier have had stressful day and this crossword has really annoyed me, as non of the clues seemed to make any sense to me. Please everyone who has helped thankyou for your patience and understanding. Have a fab Bank Holiday ( I'm working) Back next week to annoy everyone.

you might be able to download some of richards previous quizzes to cop a feel. i'm sure he'd love that ;-)
i didn't manage to finish the last one ( british movie titles) but still thought it was well worth it.

...here's the clues with answers and explanations.

remember that you have ages to solve these and it's for charity, so asking for answers on sites like this can be frowned upon.

Hi Trevor thanks for your opinion last week have only just picked it up, Certainly would not ask for help on a site like this for a charitable event but, it would be nice to think that may be one or two questions might get ansered. I think I will have a go!
