"All are verified in Chambers" -- but not in the main alphabetical body of the dictionary. Doc pulled this same trick in November with 2730.

Will37, I don't see it as a trick - I actually quite like the slight sneakiness of it!

It is available in the iOS app.

I wasn't necessarily being judgmental about Doc's trick, Malone . I was just drawing the attention of fellow solvers to a potential tripping hazard!

Thanks, Will37. Many of Doc's puzzles aren't what they used to be, a part of me feels it'd be better to have the potential tripping hazards by way of compensation!

Am I right to say that for example, the end of 39a is the start of another clue?

Also any hint appreciated for:

29a Now and again Ilse Geisler will lose according to Spencer (5)

Old english for now and again? Have an unhelpful ?E??E

Hi again, N00..
Your letters are correct for 29 A. The 'Now and again'is a very common crossword clue device - just pick out the alternate letters - from there onwards. You'll get an old (Spencer,poet, writer) word for 'Lose'.

N00... the end of 39 A does include another unclued entry/theme word(not a 'clue' as such).

Apologies... I meant the start of a another word or answer rather than clue! Thanks v much for the hint... Of course now and again...

N00b26, glad that little nudge steered you in the right direction. glad you didn't mind me expanding on the seond part of some unclued entries. I knew you didn't mean 'clue' but I like clarity!
