No, the e is there because I forgot to delete it as I went along!

7 is by DXYSMDNGHTRNNRS
8 RXTT

[LAT]

Thanks!
I think I have them both now
For 8 I was thinking of a similarly named song by LBS FFR/MDN SS

[Bunnylump]

OK, last set for a bit... I won't post the answers to the last lot just yet (although LAT and SparkOut have a full set.)

This time it's films...and something else

[LAT]

I like 5!

I have answers for several of these but need to think about the last few.

[SparkOut]

Yes, 5 is a cracker

[LAT]

Stuck on number 8 but I think I have the rest.

[SparkOut]

The mashup for 8 involved SRGNTMJ RSHTP, LFTY and GLR among others in the CNCRTPRTY

[LAT]

Thanks, that gave me an idea of some words worth looking up which got me the answer!

[Bunnylump]

OK this might be impossible, but anyway…
This is a list of missing vowel CRYPTIC CLUES, which I originally intended to post yesterday (but didn’t get round to it!) All the answers fit into an appropriate theme, and the definitions are therefore minimal. I have been kind and left the words with appropriate gaps.

You are encouraged to collaborate – I will happily confirm or deny clues or parts of clues, but if you are posting answers, please put them under spoilers for those late to the party (or nightmare.)

[Bunnylump]

Sparkout has correctly worked out the questiona and answers for 13 and 10 (well done!) 5 Is very nearly correct, your answer works cryptically, but I intended a very slightly different answer - think about what the theme might be ( this should become more apparent as more are solved!)

[SparkOut]

I think I know the theme, and the answer obviously uses the other eligible pair of notes

[Bunnylump]

Exactly!

[SparkOut]

1. H S HLD BY DMSL N DSTRSS (FR)

Not sure because it requires a missing vowel on its own but He iS HeLD BY a DaMSeL iN DiSTReSS (FR) ~= ADAM

[SparkOut]

How many letters for 17?
(Is it SX)?

[Bunnylump]

Yes to 1.
And sorry, 17 should be (FV)
