Acquired this crossword courtesy of a fellow rail passenger who left it behind and I'm finding it a couple of leagues higher than what I'm familiar with. Is this regarded as a more difficult puzzle than say, Saturday's Daily Telegraph? Anyway, someone please kick start me off again. 10 across. Clue: Song writer with track about The Big Apple (5,4). I have: P???? ?A?E. 6 down, Clue: Clerical assistant using set text (3,6). I have: L?? ???D?R. Is it LIP READER? 5 down. Clue: Form of Celtic name carved into ceiling (4). I have: M??? the third letter is also the third letter of 10 across. Help please.

I do the Times most days and I have to say that this one was one of the most difficult ones this year. I've only just finished it.
