page number 51 in money backed (5)

8 can see 51 (LI) but where is the money backed ?

this should help

Remaining 3 letters read backwards is a slang word for money.

Thanks both. I guessed it was that but hadn't heard it used for money before. I should have checked Chambers before I posted.

I seem to be the only R-timer having problems this week.! Help please for 1d and 15a. None too happy with my 'guess' at 14d...and as for 16a..!!! Think I need a lie down. Sigh :

hi raymond
1d is a T v drama. Nil score at tennis + if it is tender it ****s

15a. pain in the ear

14d. reading from back to front: 4-letters for a container + 3 letters for a container + 2 letter code for sodium. =. capital of a us state

16a slogan is the definition

Thanks everyone...just needed a nudge.! Suddenly the 'mist' has cleared. ! R.
