OMG of course ,thanks Chrise .

Thanks, Geeker, for parsing of 3d: I now see the "still". I was thinking whisky, stationary (I suppose it's a special case of that!), ongoing ... .

27a is a new word to me, but helpfully is the only word with those 4th and 8th letters, according to CrosswordSolver: the clue then made complete sense.

Finally understand the parsing of 3d (thanks geeker, brendan et al) and o quote darla @16, THAT kind of still!
