19d must be oblates and uses obe as a vestment, but I still don't get it or why sidelights in 40 dn is connected to data

Glee is delight. One's turned up is "S'1", giving sidelight.

If you gave us the clues and any letters you have,then I am sure someone would be able to assist you here.

yes, but why is sidelight data?

Your other one is laid/set, vestment/alb and the first letter in "out", backwards, giving oblates.

What is the clue, for God's sake, then we may possibly be able to help you?

Don't think Barking Dog wants to give out the clues,and I for one,have given up and gone off to bed.
A well chosen nom de plume methinks.

The Joker,
I agree, and am heading bedwards too. Some folk are hard going. Dont think we shall hear from the mad dog again. Good night!

Having fished the paper from the recycling, the whole clue is
Additional data one's turned up with glee (9)

Chambers gives "sidelight" as accidental illumination (among other things). Is that what additional data may provide? Or am I Barking, too? Have only just started the cryptic Jumbos and am already hooked!And really appreciate the help on here.

sidelight is also "additional or incidental information"
