  Masterfully done! I love your constructions. It turns out I didn't know who Grace was... but I think you'll be amused to know I arrived at the answer under the assumption she was a Peter Pan character . Thanks Oliver! :)

  Very nice, thanks! I’d appreciate a parse on 4D, it’s the only one that’s eluded me

    Hi! Thanks for solving.

    4D is G + UTTER + S "channels" is the definition. G = agent; UTTER =to reveal; S = the source of (first letter in) "secret".

  Great stuff as usual, im way below you other geniuses as usual... im missing something with 7a, as best I can tell beginning is doing double duty to get the t from the and the s from suffering

    Hi! Thanks for the reply. T = "the" in my list of abbreviations; S = the beginning of suffering.

  Bravo. The Wikipedia on Grace Darling was an added delight.

    Many thanks! In the North East of England, my old stamping ground, Grace Darling is a local heroine.
