Can anyone help with these clues? "Occasion when a sailor and a graduate re-enacted a piece of history" (4,7,10); "Milan football team is sluggish when temperature drops" (5) **E*T; "Old queen not good for all, on the whole, as successor" (7) **E****; Any help appreciated.

Milan etc = INERT = sluggish ie (Inter Milan with the T dropping from 3rd place to 5th)

1. If 10, 4, 7 = Eurovision song contest = ABBA "Waterloo"

3. Shebang (Sheba + N(o) G(ood)

[brownargus]

Thanks for the Inert and Shebang. The other is definitely 4, 7, 10. I have some letters which I think are correct- **R*/*I*I*N*/O*G*O*T*S*

[JJ109]

Those letters fit
Eurovision song contest - mistake in crossword. it is 10,4,7

[Mamyalynne]

**R*/*I*I*N*/O*G*O*T*S*

should be

??R??I?I?N ?O?G ?O?T?S?

they've messed up

[brownargus]

Thanks everyone. Yes, they've got the word lengths the wrong way round; it is Eurovision Song Contest.
