Think I’ve got several of the unclueds, but a few don’t seem to make much sense to me! To complete the puzzle, I am seeking HINTS ONLY for the following remaining clues and thanks in advance!
ACROSS: 11 Look into Republicans’ sentimentality (5): G??O?
12 Quickly performed the responsibility of guarding Emperor (7, hyphened):
?P?E?G?
16 Irrational row: one sympathises (6): ??TI?R
DOWN:
5 House (semi) got up in blue (4): L??D
26 Cut upper face (7): ?O?SU?E ( CONSUME? )
5 You need half of a word for house', noun - got up, it goes upwards (it's a Down clue), leading to a word for 'blue', not a colour.
26 Your U is wrong. You need a cut of meat...
