Sorry - the letters are 3, 6 - I tried cut adrift but cannot get anything to fit in with that. Thank you all - I will go and see if I can get some of the other answers and maybe manage to solve it that way!
If this is from Lovatts the crossword first appeared about 6 weeks ago so maybe the answer has been published and someone can give us some letters to help. I did ask last time wethe rthe clue said OUT rather than PUT but as it's appeared twice now as PUT I think that must be right
