| I shall have to disallow Lewes, as it does not quite meet the | |
| coastal requirement, while Lewis, though undoubtedly largely | |
| sea-girt, is not a town or village. | |
| Perhaps sidekick is not the mot juste; friend, associate or | |
| companion might have been better. | |

| I have just thought of another two possibles, no confidence, | |
| however.......... | |
| 2. Brighton (?) | |
| 14. Mullion | |
| 22. Hastings (Poirot's associate) | |
| 25. Criccieth | |

| A further three correct, Ashington, but your offer of Brighton | |
| is somewhat rocky. In this case, though not always, the | |
| exclamation mark in the clue is relevant. | |

| Yes to all three - that's why I ruled out Poole Pottery in | |
| favour of Hornsea earlier. | |
