Thanks Quinie I came up with caption of which i am certain and stade though I don't like it as answer. I am also a bit dubious about davit for one down
1d I think mazie's answer is correct. davit is a type of crane. aid - help, v is five and first to is t giving you aidtv an anagram of davit. A strange clue I must admit.
