27d= does the '....' indicate it follows on from the previous clue? If so, what was the clue and answer please?

[scooke]

well 1d (1st) answer,,,,, is take it back

[donny48]

27d crow

[newmodarmy]

chow fits the pattern and means food or meal, but I don't see where 'after the 1st' fits in

[donny48]

The 1st is take it back.

Eat crow = The meaning of EAT CROW is to admit that one was wrong or accept that one has been defeated
