Thanks for your quick replies and that's what I first thought of. But I have the clue reading as ? r i. The word IRE would make the other answer I need read as L E ? N. Sorry still stuck!

So sorry! Confusing myself now by reading answers backwards! If someone can explain why the 39a answer is Lion then IRE fits in. What I then need to change is the two letter answer that gives me the letter i. The two letter answer is Ti as in do re me. I can't find it spelt as Te. Many thanks.
Te
the european brought back = il reversed = LI
working = ON
