think lisa minnelli?
Don't think I've ever seen 'topless' in a clue to mean removing more than one letter (without extra wording to indicate such).
I'm sticking with Ketch for 84 as Chambers defines sketch as being musical entertainment (as well as other things)
Mamyalynne. Hit the deck is a nautical term for "get up" as well as "fall down" so is my answer right after all.
Yes.
Many apologies for giving incorrect possible answer but I had no idea that HTD meant both fall down and get up. I have only used it for fall down. I do admire the compiler's knowledge of words and his skill in formulating teasing clues.
Thanks.
84. For want of a better suggestion I will stick with "ketch" as the answer. Especially as I've checked Chambers and see like Sweetpea6 has that a "sketch" is musical entertainment.

If I follow the previous leads the musical is Cabaret which leads to Baret, the first woman to circumnavigate the seas. The clue says craft so I am still swaying towards Ousel. Not sure whether a sketch is musical entertainment.
how can it be hit the deck if it's 333
3,3,4
Question Author
It is (3,3,4)
23. My mistake (getting confused) - it's 3,3,4.
84. Chambers defines "sketch" as musical entertainment. I found the Baret person as the first female circumnavigator of the world. Haven't found anywhere that "ousel" is a boat.
Question Author
Ouzel ship built on Tyneside 1901 ( what you learn from these quizzes!). Think I will stick to sketch as previously said usually only one letter removed.
