2 Something sung in a state ... or two? (8) CAROLINA
3 Strike tramp (5)
4 Sound hooter with one inside (5) NOISE
5 Delight as pedant exposed (6) PANTED

No list of letters yet, but clue 5 is given as: 5 Delight as pedant exposed (6)

[bobbinwales]

Thanks, but we were only querying the exact wording to see how you might of come up with PANTED which didnt seem to fit the printed clue. But its now been answered as TICKLE (delight) which fits the clue perfect
