24d Babel proposal may be bit loud - and getting louder (2,5,2)
-o / - u - l - / u -
Thinking might be 'go fully up' not convinced??
Help appreciated, thanks

24d to build up

Thanks Stevie, easy when you see it. Got bogged down in computing meaning for Babel proposal, should have stuck with the tower!
Happy New Year to all Forum-ites!!

Yes indeed, a very Happy New Year 2018 to all fellow contributors.
I'm stuck with final two clues
17d (5) Lochgelly and region to the north -T- A-
I'm sure the answer is strap, referring to the " belt" , but can't understand rest of clue?
32d(6) Play back for Dundee not our set up -E-E-D
Defend?
Any help as usual much appreciated, guys.

If 17 had had 'regions', plural, the regions to the north could be Parts, strap reversed (to the north = going up, it's a Down clue)/

Yes defend (play football)

For Dundee minus our anagram

Thanks to you both. The defend answer was a bit obvious, and I blame New Year celebratory drink for my stupidity! Cheers.

Happy New Year, everyone. Have just looked in.

The answer to 65A is DOITIT ("I dot it" with "I" delayed, I.e. later in the phrase)

Last one - 2d - subsequently yank installed Scottish lift for spencer's loft (3,6) - T?E ?E?V?N. It looks like THE KELVIN but I cannot work out why. Any assistance much appreciated

I thought it was ' the heaven' from Spenser's the faerie queen. Perhaps I'm wrong.
