For No.19 I have the name of a river beginning with L as the answer. Is this correct and, if so, where does the foreign banker fit in?
Any hint please?

Is the court like a criminal one or a sports court? 33.Is it LEANDER, If so don't get the connection? 40. Still cant get the first word before loop. 70. Bob followed by anagram of laid - words like bobadil, boblaid, bobidal, bobdial and bobdali appear when anagrammed but most of them aren't real words and 86. still no further on with your clue.

GeorgeIII, 'banker' is often used in crossword clues to mean 'river', as it flows between banks.

Hairemai, your list of words for 70 includes the right answer. Try googling them, one at a time.

Thanks calliewag. I do a lot more quizzes than crosswords so I was unaware of that.

Thank you, Anotheray,
That anagram had passed me by, thought I had exhausted that line. I have the answer now, but can't fit it to the rest of the clue.

Thanks again
Lakegirl.
