28 Down = Element butler's taken to heart (8). The only element that fits our other answers is thallium. The letters we have from other answers are - h - l - i - m It may of course not be a chemical element. We're stuck! Thanks for your help, wallacia

johnalex - thanks for trying - we are convinced about our L so Rhett doesn't work. We'll keep on thinking!
