Stuck on the last three:
4d (could be limbs or lemur ?) clue: Extremities of large strange climbing animal (5) L*M**
16a Innocent reappraisal restored name (12)
P*E*A*****A*
If I have help with these, I can probably get 3d. Thanks

Extremeties of LargE is LE with strange = rum climbing is MUR gives LEMUR = animal

Anagram of reappraisal with n (= name) gives PRELAPSARIAN (look it up in your dictionary!)

Now you've finished the crossword, you can cool off (from the hot stuff) with a nice glass of cold white wine (or whatever takes your fancy) in the evening sunshine.
