As you have done nearly all the crossword you must have a lot of letters in place,many of which will help us in trying to assist you in completing the grid.

Please tell us the letters you have for each clue.

A part of Beano or Dandy = _ A _ A _ O _ _
Fellow spending half of game in gully = D _ N _ _
Obsequious person making a name in smooth talk =

Donga - is correct - I managed to find that in the meantime, but Casanova and Macaroni can't both be right. However, Macaroni fits in with Spaniel.

Thanks for help, but I still don't get how Macaroni fits the clue - am I being dense?

Kim A

A Macaroni was a Venetian Dandy in the 17th Century. Hope that helps.
