It’s got by pure luck? Flummoxed without hideous mature arse.
Unches are the cross checked spaces in crossword grids.
Sorry, unches are the UNCHEcked spaces in the grid.
First clue was simply synonyms for CLEAR and AIR (giving LOOK, reportedly indicating a homophone). Quite hard without any unches I think. I was trying to avoid anagrams too.
OK, let's get things moving with an easy one:Wobble buttocks might lead to skid row (4,6)
looking in... I can't solve it. Wobble - looks like an anag signifierbuttocks - you had to have inmight - don't know what this word is doing unless it's supplying the letter 'm'lead - does this mean first letter of something? to skid row - the definition? (4,6) - can't find 10 letters. But if it's not an anagram what is it? Not a pun as I can't think of anything common that means 'wobble buttocks', a somewhat distracting phrase...
Involving the previous answer in the clue is by far the hardest part.
I've got the answer now, but first of all I came up with Sharan! (anagram of Saharan without A for African), but couldn't work out where argute came in. And I was thinking that Sharan is a people carrier not really an SUV.
