Is EDGY GLOBE part of the clue? I can't find anything that fits.

Sorry - typical Eye 'special' crossword - those clues with an asterisk and additional number count follow special rules: Clues marked * are inspired by 'Blended Families' contributions on our Letters page, and have two parts:
1) a definition of a normal word/phrase
2) [in square brackets] an anagram of the names, either first or last, of two well-known people (some not so well known, perhaps).
The names, entered in the right order in the grid, will sound (sort of) like the answer to the definition. The letter count applies to the grid entry.
Example: * Breakfast item? [CRAB FONDUE] (5,5)
Definition answer = Fried Bacon; grid entry = FREUD/BACON
Boyle Degg.
PS Some of the names were definitely 'not so well-known' to me!

Thank you - would never have got that!
You're welcome, depression - and I'm sure you got the Boiled Egg, something for breakfast bit!
Question Author
Yes, but not the odd spelling - on-line anagram tools and letter pattern look-ups are no use here!
