I started well then came to a big full stop. Could some kind person help me with a couple of clues so I can get started again. The clues may have an extra letter in the word play.
1 down: Prince Hal finally found in modest surroundings for position of king (6) P????? 26 down: Bit left over from delivery - three-quarters of treat's somehow gone astray (6)
Thanks in advance.

No letter to be removed; first 3 words give two letters to be inserted into a 4-letter word meaning modest. Hope this helps?
26dn. 9-letter word for a delivery (cricket) less last three letters (a removed from treat).

Thank you stymied, I've got 1 down now - but, I don't understand the delivery one (possibly 'cos cricket bores me!!!!!!) could you kindly give me a further nudge for 26 down?
Couldn't aggree more about cricket -- defined in BRB as "delivery that moves from off to leg"
P.S. feed the phrase in quotes into google (with quotes) should appear at the top of list (very close).

Thanks stymied, I've now got the term (6 letters) I've 'removed' the A from treat. I'm still none the wiser! In fact, stymied I'm stymied !!!!

Or..... does the answer begin with O ?

Hurrah! I still don't know why - but it works and I still hate cricket!
Thanks for all your help.
