This went very well but for 3d. I can't pronounce any place given in Quick Solve to make it sound like Knickers here. Maybe you can think of a bigger hint...

It's the capital of the place you're thinking of...

I guess it all depends on how well one enunciates one's words as to whether the answer does sound like "knickers here"!

Thanks chrise and elle. I can pronounce very badly if required but thought it was the answer that should sound like knickers here. This shows me I have to broaden my thinking. Not my knickers I hope. (:

Ethereal, I don't have the puzzle , but it seems that the name that sounds like "knickers here" is the capital of the country that is required for the answer?
My apologies if I have misunderstood!

Boris Johnson made some cringeworthy joke back in 2017 regarding underwear being sold there ! In the days of National Service it was a common joke

Any tips or hints for 2d/10a…

Beast's antler cut and twisted at the end, almost gaping.

It's given as an 8 letter answer but it's two fours.

Anagram of most of "antler", then most of a word for "gaping". Def. "beast"
