Bit later than most people I know, but I'm stuck on the last two:

28d One Spartan character unknown by another _E_A. I had thought it was XENA because of the unknown, but LEDA would also fit.

43d Pipes drawn primarily by artist when older? _R_I_A_S I was wondering about ARTISANS but can't see why.

Many thanks in advance.

Xena is more likely- X is the unknown
28d Z eta
43d D ra in age
43 Drainage D ra in age
D'oh- ZETA is right. Z can also be the unknown. ETA is a Greek character- ENA was just a character off Corrie!

Thank you both so much. Yes, I'd been down the Corrie route too! I've obviously got an answer incorrect somewhere. I'm using my iPad to type the answers for the first time so hopefully I've just mistyped.

Sorry, thanks to all of you. I can't count either!
