Oh dear:have just discovered 5 more letters are missing altogether in 3 other answers,viz:
24a --can't get beyond ??NTAGE
30a -- " " " ?AIA
20d -- " " " HE?V?HO:presumably "heave-ho",but why?

My paper's in the recycling, so this is done from memory...
Heave Ho - an anagram, I think.
Vantage rings a bell for the other one, but if it seems totally wrong, post the clue. Thanks.
