To waste one second of one's life is a betrayal of one's self. I wonder what's on television...?

Thanks Rog - I actually worked it out after the first hint, but waited to see whether anyone else wanted to jump in for a turn! This next offering is a trio of related clues as a sort of mini Brit Xword, so that I am including the first and last letters of each word of the answers in alphabetical order (rather than order of occurrence): AAEFHNOSTTWY All three for the Belt, or submission of the last correct answer if anyone can manage some but not all. 1. Distracted abroad, accompanied by 1 and 2? (4,4,3,7) 2. Honour right on for woodland king (6) 3. Old ship docked, meeting a drama queen (7)

Having trouble with 1 - can't come up with anything that fits what I assume is the connection (I'm guessng it's the fairies in Midsummer Night's Dream...)

Rog, you have just used the final word of the first answer, and you already know that the final letter of the first word of that answer is Y...!

Aha - "away with the fairies", the fairies being Oberon and Titania. But shouldn't that be "accompanied by 2 and 3"?
