2 down - cannot begin to think whats the connection with Scipio unless I hve given Evita as the answer to 11a wrongly

Not everyone here as a copy of the paper - if you don't give the clue(s), you are less likely to get help!

Well put, Malone!
Nobody here has the paper so how could we help?

moatrat, this should answer your problem

Interestingly i was about to bring this up.

Clue News in itself unto scipios adherent (5) =SUNNI

itself unto scipio/Itself in latin is SUI but where do the 2 Ns come from?

And the link to fifteen squared does not answer this dilemma.

Any ideas? i can make one N but not the second

One N is "new", so two Ns might be "news"?

Yes it may

And sorry rambler i meant to say it clears up the scipio query but im not sure i hold with the plural news for 2 Ns

Hi chrisE not spoken for a while so i trust all is well with you. News hmm not seen that before and not sure i like it but hey horses for courses. A little pun there as that was part of todays theme.

Hi imagcq
Yes, all well here - trust it is the same for you.
Not a crossword I do (so I don't know the theme), but "news" looked quite clever to me.

Glad to hear all is well,Still fern hunting?

I have no doubt that it will appear again very soon in one guise or another

Winters coming perhaps clue chain may appear again one of these rainy mondays?
