48 D Current despondency interminable in White House (5). I have I - - - O so presumably IGLOO which is a white house but can't see the rest.
51 A Terry for one feels lie-in occasionally needed. I have E - L - N so presume ELLEN but can't see why?

I (means Current as in electricity) + GLOO(m) (Despondency 'Interminable'/without it's end.

(f)E(e)L(s) L(i)E (i)N Def. = Ellen (Terry)

Thank you Brendan!

Glad to help Basil.

51 Ellen Terry was a famous actress - decades ago! I think the reference is way too old for most of us.

I've never heard of her - I must be too young! Thx.

She died in 1928 - even if she was the very best actress, in the whole wide world, I think our ignorance would be understandable!
