Thank you bibblebub and starbuckone but still not happy with 22a. Still think "o" is correct making 22 a now t-o-t.
My clue for 18d is We need the force, with capital to fight it c - i - -. I put Cairo for that answr, hence the O. Please help!
18d is Crime (police force, fight crime)
That makes treat right (treat, entertainment, treat an illness)
crime?
18d could be crime. I am sure 23 is treat
Question Author
Sorry bibblebub, think you're right of course. Treat is correct, my other answer should be crime not Cairo. Finished at last. Thank you. Tarasmum
