Thanks very  much for your help

Is that the exact clue for 18d? Is there a word or letter missing?

[Neveracrossword]

NMA, 18 D was Last composed Don't Panic (With those two words in italics, but we can't all do those on AB!).

[newmodarmy]

Wasn't that a track by Coldplay? Play cold?

[Neveracrossword]

NMA, the A is definitely the second letter in the second word, the clue giving that is a simple anagram.

PS I always think of 'Don't Panic' as something in 'Dad's Army' (which I have never watched).

[Neveracrossword]

Sorry, NMA, and the last letter of the second word is definitely M.

[newmodarmy]

Sorry, I can't see the anagram- I can see letters of LAST would be in StayCalm but I can;t see the rest of an anagram. I'm too tired after  a busy day- the answer may dawn on me tomorrow.

[Neveracrossword]

NMA, I didn't say there was an anagram in 18 D - just that the  A in the second word  came from a clue with an anagram.I should maybe have said the ' from the crossing clue', but I thought my initial wording was ok, sorry!

[newmodarmy]

Got you. I thought you meant the second word was an anagram.

I can see the solution now- word meaning last and word meaning composed- and the result is a term which means "Don't panic"

[newmodarmy]

I was clearly overthinking it!
