I'm almost done, but can't get the bottom left-hand corner to gel. A little help would be most welcome! I think 9d may be the problem: Nuisance involving a disciple with three guys (11). I have 'tripehounds' (newspaper reporters), but can't see a disciple in it!

9d Tripersonal...ie trial (nuisance) around person. The only justification for person = disciple that I can see is that the definition of the word disciple in Chambers opens with the words 'a person...' Seems rather loose to me, but what the hey!

I also thought of tripersonal, but again could not find the disciple...!

Well, it's definitely not tripehounds, because 25a is rosie lee and 27a is maillots.

Hi crockshard, I agree with Quizmonster..tripersonal. In Chambers the definition for disciple is "a person who professes to receive instruction from another; a person who follows or believes in the doctrine of another". Anyway, that's the only connection I could find :o) regards, judy
