Thanks Mags, your 'Radio' clue helped a lot. It was the 'Romeo' bit that threw me..! I could only think of Sarah Kennedy..(which wouldn't 'fit' no matter how hard I tried.!) Still stumped on 23a though..The only nickname I can think of for 'sailor' is Jack...! I have ?E?P?U?I?..something's wrong somewhere.! S.O.S...!! R :(

Thanks Mamya...I've 'GOT the Presenter now..thanks to Magworth.! But your tip for 23a hasn't switched my brain on yet.! (Hint!)..can you please 'parse 15a for me also ..where's the 'West' connection,,?
Think I'll change my password to 'TWP'..! R
P.S. I've GOT the 'West' bit now..Mae of course.!

hi Raymond
sailor is tar
west is mae

i missed your last comment re Mae West. I reLly must concentrate

...and the girl (not english) is Paulin(e)

Thanks Jazzie,
I'd obviously 'gone astray' with 19d...I'd put 'Libel' (I DID wonder where the 'bottle' fitted.!) Now, thanks to you ALL, I can relax.
See you next week. :) R

Enjoy the rest Raymond. :)
