In most of the clues in this grid, the wordplay leads to an answer that is either one letter more or one letter less than the actual solution. This extra/ missing letter could be from any part of the solution word and will need to be added or deleted from the solution arrived at from the wordplay. There is no indicator as to whether a letter needs to be added or deleted. The clues marked with ** are regular clues, where the wordplay leads directly to the solution.
