Help please, stuck on last two. 9a, Ireland is cleaving Bremner for mocking: i-r-s-r-. Presumably Bremner refers to Rory, but I can only find derisory, which obviously doesn't fit what I've got. Also 20d, Marianne personified as fantastic broad: a model: -a-d-t. I can find
the word mandat, paper money issued by the French revolutionary government, but I don't get the rest. Thanks as ever for help.

Marianne's features in this century have been modelled on women actors who are considered to be the most beautiful. Brigitte Bardot and Catheine Deneuve were two previous "Mariannes"

Marianne is France's answer to Britannia - the name of the woman on bank notes, stamps etc
