I may be wrong but I think there is one too many letters in 17 across. I've got the answer as Joseph Ignace Guillotin - 9 lettets

Guillotine

[Baldric]

Have gone with GUILLOTINE, but agree his name had no E on the end

[Lie-in King]

I think you're right, setter's error - for those without the puzzle, the clue is -

Joseph-Ignace ----, physician who gave his name to a means of execution in revolutionary France (10)

That was meant to be 'reassurance' ....... Just in case anyone makes a comment!
