Just curious. 1 across answer= dogfight.
Being thick, I cannot work out the answer from the cryptic clue,....... "Follow 50 lost in plane journey-as in the Battle of Britain" Explain it to this simpleton please.

Dogfight - 'dog' (follow) + 'f(L)ight' (L = 50, Roman)
Follow - DOG
50 lost on -F[l]IGHT
Dog means to follow + Flight without L for 50

You all share the honours!
