Just got to do 1 across: Unproductive amateur replacing english chap (6*)
and I have ?A?L?R. Could it be FALLER, (relaces FELLER) or have I got a letter wrong?
Yes, FALLOW seems correct, The R previously came from: "Mourner is a hunting seaman as mentioned" (6) which I had as RAISED, a not ideal solution. So with the change to FALLOW I have W?I?E? which I think must be WAILER. (aka: whaler) Thanks for the help!
