6. Means of raising a pound for the animal that literally has had its day. (6) - I know the answer is made up of lifting device and abbrev of pound but am still stuck!
14. Gang member is in American prison and ….. (7) - I know this involves name of prison but having tried all versions can only come up with slammer
52. Well done! The daring villain who appeared before Charlie. - think the answer is Baddy as well done = bravo = B (5)
71 ….. the cheat was exposed in a pair of ladies’ crocodile shoes! (6) - I know previous threads have pointed to ladies and crocodile being involved but am still struggling.

Any hints on above would be appreciated

Could 52 actually be BRAVO, which we shout when someone has done well.
