Yes, it's just one word - an odd-looking word! Your second S is wrong.

Thanks Malone - I have been out of action for a spell and am definitely rusty. Hope to get going now.

Hope it helps, Truron.

PS I don't have my copy, so don't know what your 'Eg Isis' stuff means - sorry!

The thought of an 'aphrodisiac' this Valentine's Day might help...

I’ve completed it, but could anyone please help me to parse these two:

‘Bear gang caught’ = TEEM
‘Riled seven harangue’ = ORATE

Is ‘caught’ just being used as ‘sounds like’? And ‘orate’ = harangue, but not sure about the rest of it.

Yes, Teem is just a sounds like clue.

Riled seven = anagram the answer to 7!

Hello! Can anyone help me please with 29A and 11D. For 29 I have AR??A. Just can’t get any further. I think that 11 is a proper name. I don’t want to post spoilers so I will just say that I have the first 3 letters, the 5th and 7th. So the pattern is (using A for the letters I have) AAA?A?A?. The final letter is the third letter of 29A. Sorry this is so long and thank you in anticipation.
