Yes, Chop suey (Sop chewy, Spoonerism)

aelmpvw

sop = wet bread
chewy = firm and sticky

Mamyalynne

6 Plumb(ago)

goodgoalie

13a Is that the full clue? Looks like there's a word meaning 'ribald' missing it's GI (american soldier) round a + ribald

aelmpvw

6d plumb

Mamyalynne

13 I have no satisfactory full parse apart from 'GI'

Gonococci perhaps

A friend that subscribes to the Times told me the Editor has said there's an error in the clue for 13a, but that he won't disclose it yet as it's a prize puzzle.

Or something. Meh.

emmie

GI sounds like wraps knock.

Mamyalynne

Ta Maj, all it can be.

dannyk13

That seems a bit over the top.If there is something wrong with clue it should be seen to be rectified, or that clue should be stricken from the crossword.
