Help required on these two please - just cannot fathom them. The difficulty is that the answers are entered as jumbles so I cannot give any letter positions!

26. For example tent enclosure keeps 500 secure (7, two words) - letters already in grid are DEEIW

I thought the answer was TIE DOWN (secure) but there's definitely no "O" in the grid.

43. Iridescent fancy Beatle's coat (6), letter in grid is E, yes just the one!

Many thanks.

43. Blazer ?
Question Author
Could be, Mazie. How would blazer tie in with "Beatle's"?
It's flambé. Fancy = flam, Beatle's coat = BE (first and last letters). One definition of flambé is iridescent.
Hi Andy, no idea to be honest. Blazer was just a shot in the dark.
26 is red wine. definition is ' For example tent'. Then it's D win (500 secure) kept inside REE (enclosure).
Beware of people posting 'shots in the dark' - they waste everyone's time!
I don't make a habit of it Quizmonkey !

Thank you Quizmonkey, your crosswording skills are exemplary. I have my doubts that I would ever have arrived at those answers!
