Many thanks for that, Lie-in King.

Happy to help :-)
Question Author
Thank you too, viscountb.
You're welcome. Any word for 29a - Slock with an accent?
Vb - how many letters and any placed?
6 letters :s-r-s-
slock means I think weapon.
Presumably 'Stress' as in accent(uate) but can't parse with slock - yet!
s tress(lock) as in lock of hair?
....also means..

'to quench. allay, slake..'

many thanks Captain2 and elliemay 1.
