Has anyone done this one? I think I've finished, except for the last unclued solution. which I can't relate to the other seven unclued solutions.

As a hint perhaps, what is St IV about?

I would advise paying particular attention to the last part of the section headed 'Tools of the IQ trade', 'Chambers, the dictionary of choice for most barred puzzles, is particularly recommended today'.

Thanks for that. But I'm still no further forward.

Without giving too much away, I can only add that you should look at alternative meanings for each of the seven words that you have found.

You two are romping away today. Could you please offer me a hint to 1a. Rub ones bum not initially easy to get at (6). I feel it must be an anagram but can't find a word....

yes jogamel - anagram of rub on(e)s - defn bribe/procure/commit perjury/achieve by stealthy means

Thanks a lot. I was anagramming on(e)s bum. I have rotate for 3D but cannot parse. Am I right?

...and the clue is?

rotate looks good for definition of spin and rot fits root , take o/nothing away...
3d Take nothing away from Root, getting stuck into pace and spin (6) ... "and" is in italics

Can anyone help me with this one please?

Crazy girl with a crazy song (8)

Last two letters are AL. Thanks.
