Jim, Yes, that's it! Great. Thank you. In sync never felt right.

Yes, thank you, terry - as you say, to hector is to harangue.

Now I have to work out the down answer that ends in the L of EN BLOC.

Half-heartedly condemn man thrown to lions in terrible den (9)

- - M - A - I - L

(The first letter might be D but I am not at all sure of that).

The other letters are correct.

Hi Jim, It must have been a different Sammy, as I don't know anything about that song or the singer Do. Is there another Sammy who is a member here?

You're the only (and the greatest) Sammy here!

JimC

Hi again.

A nasty place called Domdaniel = 'doom' without half its heart (i.e. 'dom') + 'Daniel' (who was thrown to the lions).

JimC

Ha! The greatest of one! I like it. But what was all that about the song, then?

The answer to that last clue above must have DANIEL somewhere in it, I'm thinking.

I think the answer is DOMDANIEL

Sammy ... For the reference to Do and a song ... go back to post #6 and click on the word Do (if you can really be bothered; I won't be testing you later).

JimC

Thank you both, once again. Half the heart of DOOM > one O > DOM. Plus DANIEL. Neat!

Jim, I did click on it earlier and missed the relevant bit! Saw something about tennis and thought you must be mixing me up with someone else, heh. I see the DJ Sammy now - at last, sez you.
