Can anyone please confirm that the solution to the unclued light at 23d is GAYNESS?

The letters I have placed are ?AYN?S?

If that is the answer how does it relate to the theme?

Hi novalis if you are still around.

The title of the crossword is Kettle and I assume the theme words are connected to it.
Can you tell me if it is 'kettle' in the general sense (for boiling water), or the Cockney slang for Watch (kettle & hob)? Or is there something else I am missing?

Thanks.
Hi Mampara!

It is kettle as used in an idiomatic expression, very often with "fine" in front of it.

Thanks a ton novalis.

Now I can concentrate on the golf.

Cheers.
