Sygyzy, thanks very much for this. I've battled it with - on and off - all day! I'm down to having only one to get, but I need a rest. Although it's a challenging puzzle, it's been very good fun too.

This is proving to be the toughest of the last few months.

I am still stuck on 2d, 3d and 20a.
In some cases all occurrences have to be changed. In some not?

Glad you looked in, Sunray - it reminds me to thank you for the scans!

3 D. The misprint is in the last word.
20 A. The misprint is at the beginning.
2 D. I got my answer really just from the crossing letters - and then worked backwards for the definition.

I think I have a couple of words where the misprint letter appears more than once.

Thanks malone.
20a. I was stuck on poster or pasted.

I have 2d. It is 4d that is stubborn.

11. There are two letters to be changed.
31. Two letters should be changed but only the first one makes sense to change.

Also 9d. The third letter should change per misprint in the second word. But it does the reverse?

Let me think about your hints.

I've just started this. For 4d I have the changed letter in the second-to-last word of the clue. The entry is a synonym for fragile with a famous T-man written upwards.

That means that (as I have it) only one of the two same letters in 11a is changed.

For the corrected word, think of a Jewish food (at least that's how I saw it).

Thanks aristo.

For 4d,
If Eliot is involved then my crossers must be wrong.

I have D?B at the front and SHES at the end.

I haven't gotten that far. I do have 33a ending in N, changed from S.
