A bit of a stinker this week. Finally cracked it (though in a few cases I'm not sure why!), apart from 31 down:

Dangerous thing to feed one? Guy's maybe ok (8,4)

The letters I have are - O - P - T - L / - A - S

The first word looks like HOSPITAL (which would fit in with Guy's), but I've no idea about the second word (or what the answer is supposed to mean). All help gratefully received!

A pass usually in a contact sport such as football, lacrosse and hockey, that usually leaves the receiver of the pass injured

Thanks. Maybe I'm just being particularly dense, but I still can't quite figure out the logic behind how the clue is constructed.

Guy's : hospital
maybe OK : might pass

Yes, I can see that - but what part of the clue means "Hospital Pass"?
