I am stuck on 3 of the clues:

17ac - Harness rodent, carrying very small rope back in (9) R?I???L?E

18d - Expression in French here's no good (7) ??I?I?G

and
7d Time-keeper raised Trade Union rights and so on: impasse (6-5) - is it TURRET CLOCK ?

thanks

7. yes

Can't be DANCING if REINVOLVE is right - as the V in the middle is the first letter of 18d.

I mixed up my ici's and voici's.

That takes me back over 50 years. Voici was the very first word in my very first French text book.
