Pensychnant Christmas Quiz C/d 30/1

[hellywelly4]

I'm not asking for an answer as the setter has asked us not to ask them on line, but wonder if anyone could clarify question 29 please:

Lewycka Rides again - 1,7,7,2,8,2,9,4,9.

The only answer I can find has four letters for the second word - could it be a misprint?

[angie55]

I have an answer that fits the clue with the stated letter count.

[hellywelly4]

Have you put shorter? I can only find it listed as 'short'

Short has 5 letters. That doesn’t fit with the OP where you said 4 letters.

[hellywelly4]

Sorry, I meant 5 letters. Found it now, thank you very much. I thought that was what it should be but it eluded me!!
