I am still looking for answer to 6a; -UP 'INTERJECTION EXPRESSING DERISION'

Also 4d; 'RACE PART' L-- could it be 'LEG or LAP ?
THIS ANSWER PROVIDES THE FIRST LETTER TO 6a but 'PUP' or 'GUP' ??????

Anyone help please?

[factor-fiction]

I'd have though PAH but that doesn't fit

[Lie-in King]

Gup - "...expressing remonstrance or derision" (Chambers)

[slaney]

Pah sounds good.. where does the u come from?

[slaney]

And gup to my answer!

[factor-fiction]

I'm sure Lie-in King is right, although i hadn't heard the word before. So Leg will fit

Thank you all for answering.
I'll go with 'GUP' from 'Lie-in King'. New word to me and not in my dictionary, but it fits okay.

Next time i hear someone being rude i will say 'GUP' very loudly! lol

[Lie-in King]
