Iver :Help, please- last one - no 66 "...but one of these is unsettled and has a talk with the enemy" (6)- think'parley' but can't see how!

[acryptic]

any letters?

[iver]

6 letters but none known , as it is part of a quiz, not a crossword question

[mike11111]

Does it refer to another question?

[grasscarp]

what was the previous clue, as the dots may indicate a link

[mike11111]

Is one of the other answers players?

[iver]

Grasscarp -previous question was "All the players follow each point in the programme..." to which my answer was 'typecast'

[Lie-in King]

...but one 'player' is unsettled (anag) = 'Parley'

I think the other one should be 'Newscast' - N(orth), E(ast), W(est), S(outh) = "all the points" (of the compass)

[mike11111]

Then it's an anagram of player, singular of players in the previous question.

[Lie-in King]

Sorry, got "all the" & "each" mixed up! That's what you get for trying to think eat a bacon sarnie at the same time...

[grasscarp]

What made you think you could multi task Lie-in. You are a man!

[Lie-in King]

:-)) It was a tad on the messy side! I've even done the washing-up now...

[grasscarp]

Waste of time washing up. The world is ending at around 6pm local!

[Lie-in King]

With my luck, it won't for me - I doubt the Universe has finished dumping on me from a great height...

Past the 6 o'clock deadline and am still here so will now post entry! Many thanks to all who helped with clue 66. Iver.
