All finished but I can't see the full wordplay for 3d (I don't understand the first 4 words of the clue) and 21d (the last 4 words of the clue).

Thanks, bunty. Yes, I suppose (f)ish works. Still can't quite see 3d. I now understand the definition (thanks) but don't see what Stevens gives nor how it relates to S...IS

Hi malone, sorry, I should have made it clear I was referring to 25a with the split (I assumed with the correct 13 extras the who would be apparent).

Hi simond9x
21d. I agree with Bunty
3d. "for content" = replace content.

Hi ginge, thanks. A 'doh!' moment for me. I was too blinkered, thinking it was 'ALL' in 'SIS'. I can relax now!

Many thanks Malone, simond9x and others who have contributed to the thread and my understanding.

I see my mistake in 3 down - I had read 'even' as 'content' and identified a surplus T. I forgot to include the extra letter in 37 down so now have the work and understand the next stage of the instructions.

I can only repeat that this thread is really helpful for those of us who will never play Premier Division - though Norwich have demonstrated that surprises are possible. Alas their special victory parade bus broke down.

SOS. I don't understand 10d and 44a. Shouldn't 22a be plural?
