Having the Y may now help you with the TV detective *Y****** with 10A ?

It must be my background, but I had KERNING for 16A.

Thanks Jazzgirl, I had 1d right after all. I hadn't noticed that I made a mistake when I wrote down the answer to 3d, I was reading the F as an A. The penny has now dropped. Set in Cornwall, wasn't it? Cheers.

Thanks Seamus.

Yes it was set in Cornwall with Jack Shepherd in the main role.
Cheers!
