3.(Odd fish) in - wee bowl- affected- me(10)

correct chips...meant to be...

in=hip
wee bowl=po(tty)
affected=camp
me=I

and hippocampi are definitely odd fish

7 - Would have thought anagram of
"shy agent" and x/y/z. Hygeinist is the closest anagram I could find but obviously wrong

Can we have another clue for 7, as no-one's come up with anything? I've been trying to come up with words beginning 'hy' and 'hyd' but haven't got anywhere.

Aristo - certainly fits meaning but can't see logic. PS did you get my tenuosly stretched answer to your comment on clueless?

Well spotted Aristo...

7.Shy agent, unknown, turned into jelly, (this is the hardest clue ever set!)(9)

shy=lob
agent=rep
unknown=y
jelly=HE

and it was at least the trickiest of the seven!
