The solution, undefined, is a partner in a well-known pairing. The grid entry is ?N?E?S
Clue: Stuff about Times.
I'm thinking Marx & Engels , but not quite convinced even though it fits the clue?
Thoughts anyone?

ram = stuff, reversed + X (times)
Does clue relate to Marx- ram(stuff)reversed + x(times)?

yes, that's what i thought but wasn't really happy with it. Thanks for confirmation iminoz and dannyk13
Thank you for this - finding the NW corner very tricky.

Stumped on 2d - I think the clue might lead to MANGLE, but for the life of me can't see what the pairing would be. The clue is "Right to film fish" (7).

Any help much appreciated!
2d Think Africa. Think John Cleese for the "film fish" bit.

Everyone seems to be stuck in this corner!
Thank you - funnily enough was watching that Cleese film just a few days ago, but it completely slipped my mind!

I make the 3d entry ABOVE, but can't see why the clue leads to BELOW. Or is that a false lead?

After that just have 17a and 15d to go...!
above and BEYOND - ye / old version of the inside bond

17a clue answer is only 3 letters long
15d normal clue defn margins or even shock margins
Thank you very much
Any help with 24 a ? My last one.
think "wensleydale" for the pairing
Ha! Thanks Roslyn. I live in Australia so your clue was a bit vague , but I eventually got it.
Sill stuck on 17a: I've got *g*I* for the grid entry. Any help, please?
AmartinP, I thought 17ac was 'last orders' (no women in the phrase). So you get **** and ?g?i? I may be wrong though.
Just thought, maybe not last orders but closing time, I'm not a regular in the pub!
Like Roslyn earlier, I've got a three letter answer to 17 A - it could be broken up as ?? ?. That leads to ... and .g.i. .
Sorry, just worked it out, it's No Women.
That's what I get for trying to work back from the solution!
No harm done, teenieleek.
I thought at first that 17a was M alone so got stuck with Molly and/or Bugsy... Not helpful!
