Bassa2010, the definition is 'Delilah. Salmon gutted = a common crossword device to get a couple of letters. Those are then 'full of anger', a common word.

Hi Bassa, it's...

SIREN - Def. Delilah

Samson gutted = S(amso)N

Full of anger = IRE

Bassa, I wasn't being unhelpful - just hoping that a couple of nudges would do!

Brendan, the question didn't ask for 'hints only', I just made an executive decision!

No problem Malone. It wouldn't be the first time I'd blurted out an answer when only hints were wanted. It usually happens when I'm trying to do two things at once (I'm also restringing my telecaster) and, as I'm sure I've said before, multitasking isn't one of my strong suits :-)

Thanks, Brendan. I'm only ever annoyed with myself if the person's asked for a hint and I've trotted out the answer.

PS What's a telecaster?!

Glad to help, Bassa.

Malone, it's an electric guitar. I'm always wary when restringing in case one breaks and flies towards my eyes!

Thanks, Brendan - I was too busy (watching the Boat Race) to look it up. Maybe because of all the water I was seeing, I thought a telecaster might be a fancy fishing rod!

Bassa, glad we could help.
