Having difficulty in finishing this week's crossword and would appreciate help in getting my life back on track and not having my nose consistently in a dictionary. The top right hand corner has stumped me although I have lots of answers but which is the correct answer. Thank you in advance for help:
25A Terrified drunk crew takes in (3-8) I have A?E-?T?I????
12D Son, if not dim, certainly not bright (7)
S?????S
11D Distraught whips take heed, as result of following disastrous course (9)
S?????E??
15A Operate arms control following old judgement (7)
Could this be OPINION. I have O?I????
Would appreciate how the answers are arrived at as well.
Thank you everyone
