Thank you very much.

I had already worked out the WASPISH answer for 1a as 'spiteful' but the rest of the clue makes no sense to me. For a while, I had 'the American' resolving to USS, but that only gave me BAGPUSS as an option. Bagpuss is the definitive antithesis to spiteful, so that didn't work at all!
