Clue No. 19ac
Would some kind soul please restore my confidence in spelling, as I believe the correct answer to this clue should be RELATER and not RELATOR which the compiler obviously believes to be the correct way, on the basis of the clue which is "Storyteller (RELATER) confused real (REAL) story with no beginning or end (TOR) thus giving RELATOR.
This has now been confirmed by the "Ever Faithful" Lie-in King, on the Quiz and Puzzles page, but I thought I would let others know the result here in the Crosswords section

Hello Slaney and Lie-in King (Ever Reliable)
I have now done some further checks with my dictionaries and have to apologise for the confusion which I have caused. It would seen that in my older copies of Chambers and Collins they only show RELATER, but having now checked with later editions it appears that this is now shown as RELATOR
but strangely there is no reference to RELATER.
Trust the Compiler will forgive me for this oversight. ??
