Down to the last 3 and I'm pulling my hair out. Is anyone kind enough to please give me some pointers to solving nos.32,47 and 71 ? All are the names of famous women.
32 Celebrity fruit fed log, bizarrely! (7,6) Surname starts with F or G
47 Laurence gave a hundred in return for name and tennis player gets involved as a presenter (6,7) Surname starts with L
71 Clair Ali - puffed-out athlete (5,9) Surname starts with R
Many thanks

Hi there

47 take half of Laurence ad an a, surname rhymes with haver and add 2 points.

Have to check back on the other 2.

32 I should have said fruit not a fruit....and totally wrong about the "jungle" thing. That would be Fatima Whitbread!

Btw...I have still 2 to go, Will keep on trying but may be looking for clues soon.

Take care

Many thanks pastille. I thought No. 71 had an amendment but couldn't find it. I've done the anagram thing but with no joy. Can I return the favour?

rinkleez - not sure if you've got 71. Think long distance.

Rinkleez, there was an amendment to 71.
i don;t remember what exactly but you need to change one of the "i"s to an "a".
