Many thanks, NACW, I'm glad that I saw the "sere" and given the rest I thought it had to be Teresa. I'm going to have a look at the Eye Crossword now. Joyeuses Pâques!

Thanks, Matakari. You should have thought on 32 a little bit longer - as you had the  'sere', the old crossword stalwart of 'essentially' should have jumped out at you!

PS Private Eye was definitely on the easy side this time.
