Hi Malone
Your help urgently needed!
Can you give me the answer to1D Bird sounds on cameras (5)
18D looks like 'possessive' but I see not connection with Columba.
Can you give me the pair to19d which will help me make sense of 19d
Many thanks for past help too

18d: Columbia is just used as a word in this clue since it's in the form Columbia's here

19d goes with 27a

18 is Possessive. I've not got the magazine to hand, but didn't the clue have 'Columba's'?

1 D. Booms, cameras.

I'll retrieve the crossword and come back to 19 D!

Thanks dagnabit.
However I see no connection between Columba and 'possessive'!

Belonging to Columba.

Is 41 really RA, which seems to imply its 5,8? Can't see it.
I reckon its the banana king.
Otherwise I'm done.

Lumen, yes= - 41 is RA , and as mentioned earlier it is linked to the banana.

Farr, as the clue has 'Columba's' I think 'possessive' works.

Farr, could be an in-joke, Doc saying co-compiler Columba is tight?
