I am stumped by 177 down "Backcomb (hair)". I I have TED?E. The obvious association is with "Teddy" (Teddy Boy) and I suppose "TEDDY" could be the answer except that I am fairly certain of the last E which comes from the second "E" of 207 across for which I have "USELESS" (the clue being "Hopeless").

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I think you are right. That would make 193 across (clue - "Gradually exclude ...out") "EASE" which is more appropriate than the "EDGE" that I had.
Many thanks - I had convinced myself that it must have something to do with Teddy Boy hairstyles!
