give?

[slinky.kate]

Hmm...Can't find any of those names on google :(

I think it means grant as in "to allow" or " a sum of money" rather than someone's name such as Grant Mitchell.

Hugh Grant is pretty yummy in my opinion. Shame he's got such filthy habits!

[slinky.kate]

Sorry just been told it's d**n

[squarebear]

I think you will find it's y**n and is yawn. It was discussed on another thread and even someone who worked for the paper couldn't figure out why.

[slinky.kate]

Thanks Squarebear, don't understand why it would be yawn though?

[shooty]

yain has also been mentioned a couple of times.

Katburd says - "just received a call from the Daily Record, she said the answer to 78across is yawn, she cannot understand it herself going by the clue, apparently the crossword comes from down south, she did not compile it, she just looked at the solution."
