I am struggling with these last two

30d N-N-M-H

52d -H-I-H-B-T

http://private-eye.co.uk/sections.php?section_link=crossword&

Stumped!

Ideas folks?

In 52d, I think your first H might be incorrect, the answer looks like DISINHIBIT (much revered woman = DI, go astray = SIN, hello = HI, piece = BIT).

56a - Treatment of worried Tories happy to restrict Home Secretary's extrermes [13] = "Psychotherapy", surely?

[aLICErOBERTSfANkLUB]

Except it's "physiotherapy".

Good arrows, people!

did i mess this thread up?

No ........ But I don't mind admitting that I'm finding it quite tough ....... I can't decide if it's an anagram of 'moist graduate' or whether I'm missing summat .......

So give us some letters then to get it moving once more?

"...and with a little forethought avoid the 'long reach left'..."

[johnx2]

it was a fair enough clue (graduate = BA, parent and moist give the other letters), it's just the answer's not easy to set. After which preamble/excuse:

From what Strapiombante is to what RF says TPS and ZC are now (the former to some debate); S&P did this to France! ( 8 )

[burbistan]

You sure about it being 8 letters?
