help needed please :o
can anyone who has a bit of spare time please help
with this riddle,
am afraid i can't do these very well & am getting nowhere
with it,
would be very grateful for any help please..

Work out the name of a british film actress from the clues below.

My first is in takaway,
but not in meal
My second is in angry,
but not in how you feel
You'll find my third in handstand,
but never in roll
and spot my fourth in a side plate
but it can't be found in bowl,
My fifth resides in bungalow,
but not at home
find letter six in Latin,
but it can't be seen in Rome
the seventh is found in Great Dane,
but never in dog
the eighth is found in spiral,
but not in a cog
for letter nine search endlessly,
but you won't spot it in time
and the next letter's in notice,
but can't be seen in sign
the final letter's in thinking
but not in your mind.

So who is it that's hidden ?
once the name is found the actress & actor
(Leonardo Dicaprio)
starred in a film together,
the Film answer is the answer we need.
please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png

    At a quick glance I would say Kate Winslet :)

    I agree with Chrissie, so the answer they're looking for would probably be: Titanic

    I am brave, I am bruised
    I am who I'm meant to be
    I'm not scared to be seen
    I make no apology
    THIS IS ME!
