Pitt is the actor, not the Napoleonic PM, and Guinness is an example of the beer

Quisling, much thanks. That's helped a lot.

Another fine offering from Eclogue, to whom thanks. I spent some time looking for something rather more elevated in the serenade line and initially took the wrong 50/50 bet; but it all came together nicely with my few unsolveds being sorted by the gridfill.

Eclogue has been a busy, um, bee, what with this and the EV.

Grid filled and song found but I’ve one clue unsolved and although the answer must be in the completed grid I can’t find it. The Gunners organise Walter’s fish eggs (4). Can someone who hasn’t binned/recycled their copy tell me where to find it please?

Hi teenieleek, starting from the top, row 8 and L=>R cell 10, running SW => NE.

I'm still struggling with this.
Help on these would be great.
Take care of ordinary Tokyo raincoat (4)
Amount of film to treat the elderly (7)
Across the top row I have entered a sugar beginning with M...is that why I've gone wrong!?

Lumen, your first row looks correct.
"Take ..." def. is 'Tokyo raincoat'. Not a word I'm familiar with, but it's in Bradfords if you have it.
'Take care of' (5), with extra letter, + 1 letter abbreviation.

"Amount of film" is def. 'Treat (4) + 'elderly' with extra letter.

Thanks again mattrom.
Got both of those now.
I did search for that raincoat word but failed yesterday. But today found it is actually in Wikipedia.
Can you parse the sugar? I think the extra is U, but no idea on woman favoured etc.
Finally (for now), please point me in the right direction for Ahead of energy bill gripping festival is a necessity.(6)

I got there in the end!
Great puzzle. Found it much tougher than Listener this week.
I had the wrong sugar in row 1 for a long time.
