I've only highlighted the ten letters that set the scene, which is what seems to be asked for.

End in sight.
I have been through the grid twice and can only find 8 missing letters:
1a M, 6a I, 1d A, 12a R, 8d B, 19a T, 32a C, 37a O
Any help on the other two appreciated

I think I've worked out what this should be, but having trouble seeing how the "mi b" bit is going to work. Hint appreciated

Crackabilly, you have two wrong i.e, 19a and 37a. These are the clues you should be looking at 14a, 30a, 39a, and 10d. Hope that helps.

Thanks for this Uncle_c.
You have confirmed what I thought.
However, I can't seem to get the second "I" and second "M"?.
As always any pointers appreciated

8a - the note has two possible spellings, the clue requires you use the one ending in "e"

12a - the answer is a word meaning barrow(mound), the wordplay gives you a three letter word meaning pushed that needs to be reversed around the "scene" letter
