    Rigby could suggest Eleanor.
    Much less cunning than those - what was the character's name?

      I had gone on to jeans. Maggie Smith was in The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie.

      Oh.....and her character in Quartet is Jean.

        - and Ms Rigby? (The same profession as Ms Horton.)

          And Jean Rigby is an opera singer.

          Jeans.

          The Hess will be very difficult.

          It's not a tutu.

          I thought of torridly but doubt it is linked.

            - might be useful - but if you go for Gold, you'll be playing false.

                No - Sorry, I thought you had it with Tutu. Where would you usually see someone wearing a tutu?

                  Erm, that reference to false if it is a clue suggests true(s)/trews (because there is an opposite in the clue) but I think I may be drifting here.

                  Tutu - ballet.

                    It is indeed a pair of Trues/trews (hence the "sounds like" in the clew) - so you now need some connection between True

                    ballet.
                    ... and Hess.

                      I don't think I am going to get this bit.

                      Might be being thick but I'm not sure which Hess this is and am currently thinking about Ernst.

                          You cannot be serious.

                            Spandau Ballet - True?

                            This fits in with your earlier reference to going for "Gold".

                            .....or maybe not - why Gently?

                            I think I will hand it across.

                              - and the single had "Gently" on the "B"-side.

                              So - two sopranos (one factual, one fictional) gives us a pair of Jeans;
                              two versions by Handel gives us a pair of Pants;
                              and a pair of Trues from Spandau Ballet.

                              Three different names for Trousers - brilliantly solved, Lats. It's U (or V or W if you prefer) next!
