Crossword2 - 4

Sandy wades in...but wrong about 60 down and the geek one.

He nearly takes the lead but a steward's enquiry awards one extra point to Odette for "EMU".

Odette how am I supposed to spot typo's? If you sent a typo into the Times prize crossword, would you get the fifty quid? Eh? Eh? Just for complaining, I'm crediting the correct answer to Lynny. Only joking.
