Can some one explain the cryptic aswers for:
9a Thorax
24a Close ups
5d Rank and File ( and file I guess is the 'smoother' part)
7d Elicit

[Iolanthe]

9A Thora + X woman will accept kiss

5D Rank = bad

Don't know about close-ups!

[baitress]

woman = thora + x(kiss) = thorax part of the body.
24a lose in cups = close ups . images
5d bad = rank = and fileSmoother.
rank and file is the name of men in the army.
7d e= energy licit = permitted. = elicit.
