MC Chung said: same woe - that's what we are, according to Andy, but different this time! (7) I'm not particularly good at cryptic crosswords, but "same woe" is an anagram of awesome, which seems to fit the bill. | ||

A rallying cry for the two leaders (4,4). Struggling a bit with this one. I guess one of the words is probably 'head'?A couple of people have asked for an explanation of the (6, 8) clue below, so here it is: 'First and Third decked in gold' = 'gold' with the first and third letters removed ('decked') = OD so: 'First and Third decked in gold and blue remarkably' = OD and BLUE 'remarkably' (anagrammed) = DOUBLE 'crown' = HEAD 'end of Bumps' = S 'with it' = HIP (as in 'trendy') and the whole clue is also the definition. | ||
