Thank you Slaney that makes 15 down A?N???E?T (just noticed I left the A off when I posted first!
Question Author
Thank you very much for that Bibblebub

That makes 22 across T?X?LESS - presumably textless - anyone any thoughts on my provisional answer to 1 down?
24d: one to help overcoming = 'an aid' reversed = DIA NA
but haven't figured out which widow yet
1d: is Bacchanal part of the clue? or does the clue end with the word 'at'?
Question Author
Sorry no the actual clue is One Titus, a lord we hear
22a: state = TEX [texas]
that's initially = T
deficient = LESS
Question Author
The last letter is L My original post is correct - ignore the later reference please!
1d: clue sounds like "tight as a lord" i.e. drunk http://freaky_freya.tripod.com/Drunktionary/T-Z.html
