Glad I could help.

It can't be 'ido' as it won't work with other answers.

This is a thematic crossword and some clues need to be 'thematically adjusted' before entry - 39 A is one of the affected clues.

[saladdodger]

Thanks neveracrossword - yes sorted it now! The "non-words" for entry are a pain though!

What was 21 then, please.

Ta, Roslyn. Doesn't make sense to me on any level. But these 'thematic'? crosswords never do.
