The Genius Crossword 255 By Soup
On the contrary, NACW, the hints have been helping me along quite nicely. Just two left , 5a and 10a for which I now have anagrammed letters. 5a: ?R?A?S and 10a: ?S?R?L
Four other clues, for which I have some anagrammed letter inputs,are giving me some trouble. Help would be appreciated.
1d Kept braced (6) : S?E??? - Anagram input letters
4d They let tears over our late monarch (7) : ??E???? - Anagram input letters
17d They pluck flapping parish turkeys’ wings (8) : ???R?T?P - Anagram input letters
23d Lawyer calls to abandon no-platforms (6) : ?S?D?S - Anagram input letters

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Matakari, you asked last week about the new setter, Fire, on the Spectator squad. I read earlier that Fire is the pseudonym of four women, who set as a team. Apparently 'Fire' is Danish for 'four' - I don't know if any of the four are from Denmark or if there's another reason for choosing the name.
PS I hope you had some fun with the last few anagrams. You'll have wanted this Genius finished before the challenge of the next Spectator puzzle!
