Hi all
I have completed and managed to parse all, except for 20d Turbulent fellow carrying stone (5)
I have a word for turbulent , with the first 3 letters being the name of a fellow, but the last 2 letters I cannot see as "stone" so I guess it's the wrong answer.

Just finished - trickier than usual, I thought. One or two I'm not completely convinced about my answer. For instance, 2d Drink for a tennis player. (5)

I have a tennis player and a drink, but I also have a very long memory! Is there a more recent one?

Yes, that's who I've got. Of course, I don't remember him as a player, but when I started playing tennis, his firm's clothes were just about the only tennis gear available.
