I've nearly finished the crossword. I've seen the play but i can't remember it-Help!

Which crossword/clue?

No one will be able to help you, unless you give us a little more information!

POSTING TIPS

1. State the name (and number if available) of the puzzle in the thread title. "Stuck", "Help!!!" or "Last One" aren't very useful titles.

2. Give the clue number, the clue and the number of letters and please put this number in parentheses at the end of the clue. If no number of letters is given in the puzzle, then tell us. It also helps to know if the clue is cryptic or general knowledge.

3. Tell us which letters you already have. Try to use spaces around the character you choose for missing letters as it makes it much easier to read. Also try to ensure that the letters given match the stated number of letters in the clue.

These come up at the top when you start a thread.

Wild guess !! Everyman crossword ?

Are Mondays always like this ? :-)

That was my thoughts too, Cerasus.

I'm in the process of trying to finish it off as we speak.

19, 20 and 24 causing me grief.

I presume 24 is noodle but can't finish the parsing.

I also presume prelude is correct but can't fully parse that either.

19 piccalilli
24 is Foodie
Prelude is correct

prelude
pr(pair) avoid (elude)

Thank you. Foodie... so simple now I see it.

Parsing for picalilli :
film(pic) about(ca) l(ake) sinister (ill) i(sland)
