    Not in this instance.

    (Still trying to work out if duchy and Beano are clues
    Not the former - the second is a puny clue, I suppose.

        - just to clarify: "the second ... puny clue" referred to "Beano" as in Flay's post, not "Porter".

          If we're having a Beano, then D is not Dandy, but is Porter Cole?

                Cole Porter and "study" should prove very useful. (But, apart from divertiing from the traumas of AA, the Goodies and the Beanstalk will be no use whatsoever! )

                    He is indeed - and his studies are as useful as Mr Porter's.

                      Cole Porter and Seth Bingham both studied with Vincent d'Indy.

                        - they did, indeed. Now all that's needed is a "6" from which "3" might have connections also with said professeur ...

                          Three of "Les Six": Georges Auric, Arthur Honegger, and Darius Milhaud, also studied with d'Indy.

                            perhaps not "a six" but "the six", or even...

                            [ ah, I see the subcontra got there before me ]

                              - with vinty mentioned in these patches.

                              So - to coleslaw-

                              Vincent d'Indy, who at various times taught the three members of Les Six that subby mentions above, and Cole Porter, and Seth Bingham (no; I hadn't, either!).

                              Full marks to subby and the opportunity to excercise our brain cells with an E.
