If 16 across is - tormented
if 21 across is - teddybear
if 27 across is - operation
how can 6 down be - scaredy cats ?
As it cannot fit in the available squares!
Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is sending me nuts !!! (grin)

Also any ideas on 35 across would be wonderful.
Thankyou.

@plainkate,
Have you got the clues? A lot of us like word games but we don't have the magazines. Thanks.

@plainkate,
plainkate, my learned friend Lmur is 100% correct! SCAREDYCATS is the appropriate answer for 6d!

You are wrong somewhere if you can't fit it in. Have yoy got 'falsefy' for 35a? and 'niche' for 12a?

Looking forward to your reply.

@Dutchy,
thankyou my friend, I will have to go back to the drawing board as I am new to cryptics and had thought that I was going okay but the dreaded crytic has got me again (grin)
One day I will conquer one - unfortunately today is not the day!
