Stuck on these 3:
11ac - One selling the other soft Swiss food mummy has eaten, only the starter (10) - ?R?S?I???E - I can only get prostitute and crassitude , but don't see how either fits the clue.
23ac- Country runner taking drink back (7) - ?I?E??? - I can get Nigeria and Liberia. The drink back could be gin in Nigeria, but how does the rest of the answer fit the clue?
21d- Black swimmer's shiny jewellery (5) - B???N - can't see what this is at all. The 3rd letter of this answer is also the 6th letter of 23ac.

All help , with explanations, gratefully received.
Thanks

21d B ling (a fish)
Nigeria. The runner must refer to the River Aire. 21d is BLING where ling is the swimmer.
