Another (relatively) straightforward one. Just need to satisfy myself with some of the wordplay and I'm done. Getting the theme early filled the grid quickly!

I thought the clue for 31d was a bit laboured.

Yes - especially for those with no French!

Help ..... last one ..... have I got these letters correct for 5d. ?
Agitate for beheading of Louis XIV's self-description ? (4) es?t
Thanks. ;o)

your s should be a t Sillyboy

Thank you ixion. Back to the drawing board ! lol

Thanks again ixion ..... all sorted now. I missed the anagram in 9a and put in unfostered ! lol ;o)

A few queries..

3D - pretty sure of the answer but wordplay escapes me - have an r and a been added from the boxes below?

31D - I have ?E?E?U - if correct is the answer a French word?

Thanks

ixion

31d. you first E should be an A. It is French.
3d. Is a 6 letter word .... the R and A belong to across clues, but not to 3d.
:o)

Thanks Silly Boy - are we talking about the same thing for 3D - in her era?
