Hi sunray, sorry to be a pain but I've already deleted the pdf so no longer have access to the clues. If you can be bothered posting the clue I'll happily point out the definition.

Top left corner is puzzling me, and I'd appreciate help, please.

14a) Temporary place to preach, ardently spurning books, as last commandment ordered? (7)
Have _ E _ _ _LY

Thinking: Ardently - books = ARDE(nt)LY anag plus I = READILY, but that doesn't fit the clue. I've tried FERVE(nt)LY & H(ot)LY, but neither works.

3d) Continental leaving academy inspires college hippy? (7)
Have SC _ _ _ _ C.

Suspect it's Scandic, but CANNOT parse this.
Thinking: College = New? Peacenik - ac = peenik? Huh?

3d SCIATIC relates to the hip bone, so 'Hippy' would fit the definition.
