I've been struggling with Saturday's prize crossword. Two left.

K*T** (last letter may be L)

The Greek, northern English and Spanish pub.

R*Y** - *U*T

What (in play) of the Sun, heartlessly roaming after pointy stag?

I'm off to the sandwich shop. I shall expect answers. There could be a Collins English Dictionary in it for you. Pretty please with sugar on.

The first one could be Khios, but I don't know how the 'l' fares then.

If the K might not be right, the answer could be hotel.

Scrap that, I read it wrong.

I agree with Hugorune after actually seeing all the letters.

The first one is Hotel (could your K be wrong?) I think Joe...

Thanks very much everyone.

I spelt Checkov instead of Chekhov. Thus giving me a K instead of H.

Could the S be a G by any chance? I'm thinking the answer could be SLAUGHTER.

I thought so, the first part, but what does it have to do with cat?

Could it be SeeK?

It`s something to do with a cat being able to look at a King, I think.
