Hi Palman - have to disagree with you on 61. Where is your connection to 60?

A six letter fruit is also a name of a character in a book relating to 60. Oh - it's a Q

Didn't desert you - just got called away.
54. Begins MOS, for doctors.
56. Think of the name of a play beginning with P. The little man also begins with P.
60. Try Harry Potter for game.

I'm still trying to work out No 61 if you've got any further with that one.

Hi all. Just wondered if anyone had a clue for number 58, my last one! I have an answer but it only explains the first part of the clue, not the last part. I assume it begins with a P - could anyone give a clue? The question is: "A scrupulous point but controversially unpolitic". Many thanks.

Hi, I found this site through a friend so am very new. I hope some kind soul will point me in the right direction with questions 32 and 46. I have read the threads regarding 46 and now know more about bass and drums than I will ever need to know during this lifetime (and possibly the next) and am still completely in the dark!! Also, I think I must be the only one who doesn't have a clue, no pun intended, as to the answer to No. 32, very lowering. One other thing, I totally agree with Palman as to the answer to No. 61, if it is wrong what on earth have you good people got for No. 93??

Thanks Betty for your help. Now got 54, 56 & 60. Re 61 - found name of fruit beginning with Q (6 letters) but is this the answer as Nonplussed tells us to google the fruit plus HP. Can't get it, can you?

Re 11 - clues re musketeers, only one begins with a P but can't see the connection.

After those two, that just leaves me with no. 37 ??? Larder/fridge etc????

Help please and thanks.
