Thank you Mamya.

I'm grateful r this exchange as it enabled me to complete a few more, but I'm still held up in that area :

what, pray is :
15A - She come about in broad Nile Mouth (7)
M???N?A
& (while I'm at it)
25A - Trouble's over? Dad calls for drink! (4, 3)
D?D? P?P

I fear some of the letters cited may be erroneous

Mamya, thanks.

I should have realized 1D was in the present tense & couldn't see 15 for looking - rather hung up on the notion of "Miranda".

I hope now to finish the remaining two.

Help appreciated parsing this...

39a Hostility from soldiers escaping outrageous act (6) - ENMITY (Hostility)

I thought this might be a word meaning 'Outrageous act' minus 'Soldiers', but the only thing I can think of is 'Enormity' minus OR which is more of a description of an act rather than an act itself so I think I've gone wrong somewhere.
