SE Skeleton 12th July: more talc from Charlotte oddly (5) ----r Neglected to back a man up (4) ---t Helot first to voice which perhaps (4) I think the answers are OTHER, OMIT and HEAR respectively but I can't work out why

[bibblebub]

1: OTHER

remove the letters of 'talc' from 'charlotte' and make an anagram

[fiction-factory]

OMIT could be TO backwards and iM (one man) backwards

[bibblebub]

2: OMIT

tO back = O
a man up = tim reversed = MIT

[fiction-factory]

bibblebub has it.
Is that the exact clue for the Helot one?

[PETEREVO]

Ok ta all. How about - a popular but contrary girl (4) Is it AGIN?

[mallyh]

cHaRlOtTtE anagram of odd letters
first of helot.....h +air (to voice)
omit tim reversed

[bibblebub]

mary?

(popular girls name + the nrusery rhyme: mar mary quite contrary...)

[mallyh]

[PETEREVO]

[PETEREVO]

10 across warm water around grass l-e-t. I might have the l wrong
