Thanks to all who have helped so far, amazing what R.O.C. and flying dancers know! Only ones left include a new question after needing to re-work a previous weak answer.
20. From William mild protest re ice encasement. ( 6 )
91. Land's End recalled king's issue in 2002. ( 7 ) (There is a Lands End in Cape Cod !)
3. Binge before the witching hour ushers this in. ( 8, 8 ) ( We all want this to be 'Shipping Forecast' but can't justify. Can you help??)
Look forward to any response.

I couldn't reconcile "binge", so I did a Google on Sailing By which i knew to be the tune played before the forecast. "Saling by Binge" came up with the goods. It's a rather pleasant, restful tune, reminiscent of a Pacific isle!

3. The answer is shipping forecast. This is always preceded on Long Wave Radio4 by the tune "Sailing By", which acts as a signal to ships' wireless operators to have their notepads ready. The tune was written by Ronald BINGE.

I should have said the Midnight Shipping Forecast - loved by insomniacs!

Thank you

King's issue could be either Prince or Princess. One "Prince" born in 2002 was a Michael Jackson offspring. His moniker was "blanket" - might this be a blanket of snow?

20 Want it to be Billow...but don't know where the ice comes in.

frugalfred

91. Further thought - Michael Jackson's ranch is called Neverland! (Land's End?)

frugalfred

20. William = Bill; mild protest = OW! Billow is therefore correct, in my view.

We already have 'blanket of snow' so it can't be that. A King's issue was Princesss Margaret who died in 2002 if that helps? I find Jamesons works as well!!

frugalfred

Margaret reversed is "teragram".. any relevance?
