I have two regular clues left - Completely cancel reorganisation of small university’s land (8) D?S????? Select an old character, say, as Lavatch’s alter ego (8) P?I??ON? (This one seems a bit meta)...
I’ve attempted my first Listener crossword, possibly unwisely, and I’m nearly done apart from this clue - Gelding's odds at the off, about the same (5) I have ???D? - I’m pretty sure about that D....
Despite a slow start, thanks to an early identification of the unclued theme (clever title!) I’ve nearly finished this week’s Speccy bar a few clues which I’d like help to check/solve. Military unit...
This week’s Speccy is a bit of an animal. Although I’m on the back straight, two clues are eluding me, both linked to 11a, so this q is probably best for those who have already solved that one. 40a...

Charlie, outwitted by Buchan's hero briefly in a filmed story about runaways (4,5)
I have C?A?/H?N?? but as ever, open to amendment.

I’ve smashed it this week, all the Unclueds done fairly early, but I have a couple of things I need to check. First a clue I need to double-check - Bouncy cat set off, scratching a rook (6) I have...
Just 3 left - Tiny distances taken by love letters to Aspasia (8) ?M?C???S One cat almost swallowing upper-class Trojan spokesman (8) I?I?N?U? Work a playwright left unfinished in Iberia (6) O???P?...
Spectator time again!
A couple to do -
“Local hawker having time with loudmouth” (7) ??A??ER (I’m thinking BOASTER)
“Spoke of Cardinal’s fabric” (7) ?O??S??
TIA....
A bit desperate this one, but I’m hoping someone here has finished the crossword in this month’s Shindig magazine. After a long session of googling and parsing I only have one clue left, and it’s a...
