I've just a doubt about one of the answera, should anyone, like me, be burning the midnight oil! 32 Down:- "Controls shares -
doesn't make the grade". I have the answer
as "PLOUGHS" but can't connect the latter part of the clue to this answer.

Many thanks, Aristophanes - I wasn't aware of this - something else I've learned!
