Can anyone give me a heavy hint on the title of
the work released 50 years ago which is the
theme for this puzzle?

I haven't got the crossword, but, as a guess, KIngsley Amis's "Lucky Jim" was published in 1954.

I think it is mary poppins and there are 38 letters in 'a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down' ? But I cant get all the clues out to get the shaded in answers!

Thanks very much.

I can see Mary Poppins in the grid and will follow
up on your suggestion which makes perfect sense.
