Can Someone Please Explain To Me Why 10 11 12 13 21 4 20 28 Equates To The Answer Go Bless America

God Bless America

[factor-fiction]

Go or God?
Are the answers to clues, 10,11, 12....28 relevant?

[snipebird]

This from a telegraph toughie puzzle

[scorpiojo]

Can you give us the answers to 10, 11 etc?

[factor-fiction]

I'll rephrase my query. Do you think that the numbers refer to other clue numbers in this crossword?

[snipebird]

No, I don't believe they do.

[scorpiojo]

See 5d here:

Thanks scorpiojo. So the clue does refer to the answers to clues numbered 10 11 12 13 21 4 20 and 28

[scorpiojo]

Welcome :o)

[snipebird]

My sincere thanks to you all

[Prudie]

I'm still none the wiser, I can't see how the link explains it

[snipebird]

See "mark as best answer" by scorpiojo.

[Prudie]

Yes thanks snipebird but sorry, as I said I did look at her link and the 5d explanation but it doesn't list the actual answers that show how one concludes with God Bless America. Oh well.

[snipebird]

And to me it remains a mystery !!!!!!!!!!

11 - criminal = anagram (of)
10 - BLED inside 13 (fine) = GOSSAMER
Followed by I (21, single) + a 2 letter abbreviation CA (denoting 14 - around)
to give a patriotic 28 (number) by 20 (Berlin)
