Areas and pastimes & situations where you could be in danger
14. Taking a crow for a stroll could lead to an accident (3,7) Begins with J and W Okay, I googled and you guys call a crow a JAY so I'll say JAW WALKING
15. Satellite TV company falling from above (3,6) Think of a satellite TV company, the rest should follow I've been googling satellite companies already LOL I'll keep trying. Okay, I think there is a company called SKY and all I can think of that falls from the sky is a METEOR so I'll say SKY METEOR. If that is not right just give me the answer (my head is spinning).
16. Extra-terrestrial no asking initially is one (7) Begins with V Can't come up with anything. Just give me the answer please
19. Kiss pole dancing goodbye for alternative downhill (3,5) In the sentence (anagram) If it isn't SKI POLES or SKI SLOPE just give me the answer
20. Travel by air with a cigar could prove fatal (3,6) None of us got this one..so I give you the answer FLY AGARIC.... Actually that's what I had on paper because traveling by air is to FLY and I assumed the rest would be "a cigar" unscrambled. I would have put AGARIC in but had no idea what it was so I didn't put the answer in. LOL I guess I needed to google what agaric was and I would have seen it was a poisonous mushroom.
23. A shilling for his leg going downhill (9) Look up what us British used to call a shilling Can't come up with a thing. Just give me the answer.
24. Messing around in swamp wars has sting in tail (4,5) We didn`t get this one either. STAMP WARS OOPS...I just noticed I didn't put in my answer for this one. On paper I wrote down WASP SWARM and I think that is a much better answer because they sting. And how does STAMP WARS work with the number of letters you gave?

4. Bringing trams back creating dumb main roads (5,9) trams backwards is smart so I think the first word might be SMART MOTORWAYS Okay, I did google what you guys call main roads and saw MOTORWAYS but had no clue what was dangerous about them so I didn't put in the answer.
17. What politicians may wish for mountain villages do not (9) LANDSLIDE
