Small point but I think It might be 'almost' ASTERN (= showing behind) rather than A STERN

Apologies "song" is incorrect it's "snog"

Hey.
I have 2 pleas for help.

7 down (Private Eye CW 815)
All together: "Incredible - noble Conservative!" 6 letters
E_B_O_
I cannot for the life of me work it out.

The other issue is 3 down (7 letters)
Sun Rogue held in honour - cover up! O_S_U_E
I have OBSCURE. As in Cover up.
& the honour in the clue led me to OBE.
But what's the SCUR part? How does it parse?
I'm continually learning this cryptic business.

Hi ceffi, 7d is actually (2,4): anagram + c (conservative)
4d common abbreviation (in Chambers) for sun = s + cur (rogue).

Hi 1234matt, the "e" at the end of the 1st (4) is wrong, think horse racing.

Hi 1234matt

With reference to 4 across, it's an anagram, hence there is no "i".
