I don't want to spoil it for anyone else, but can someone tell me the last six letters of 40 across?

40ac is formed of 2 words. Unsurprisingly given the theme, both words begin with the same letter. There aren't many options if you've got all the other answers.

Dear peterm, I have -K-AS-
Nothing fits the criterion of the unclued lights. Is it BASS, or MASS? Any suggestions?

hg - you must already have the first (and second) letter of 40ac if it's your last clue. That's the theme of the puzzle. As said in the preamble, individually the 2 words are thematic, so they both start with the same letter.

Thanks to peterm and Joan. I had a mental block there, looking for the whole word to conform to the theme, rather than each individually. It could confuse a stupid person.
