Can only think of Emeer for 22d - are you sure about the letters ?

Excuse again purlig

I can see Clive as a wordplay, but it makes no sense to the clue. I went to sleep last night thinking about it, and I woke up and still hadn't solved it. Must be getting very sad !! Where is the Wee Stinker - paper / page ?
