That's not you Bees, you're not trained!
22a is probably the worst clue I've ever seen in the Radio Times, (Pervert is not after slap (8))

I agree with you, Torvic, but I don't think that anyone will have any problems with 9a, 10a, 24a, 2d, 6d and 19d because the answers are blindingly obvious. However, 15a took some thinking about, as the wording of the clue is clumsy and, for those of you who don't live in the county, the river's the one which flows through Cheshire.

hi caravaggio,
yes i was stumped for a while with 15a. the rest took 40 mins with 20mins for 15a. Although i thought the river was in scotland - i'm going to google it after i've finished this.
About tv catch-up from last week's thread - i think the important part is that it is not live (ie not about the same time as normal tv) itv and ch4 also have catch-up programs similar to BBC iplayer.

For the record 15a and 14d were the last two clues I did. Regarding the river there are several by the same name in the UK.

hi crypto,
Yes its a river in cheshire and scotland. And for any old rockers out there - its also the name of a pretty little instrumental from Ozzy's "Blizzard of Ozz" album.
