I think K meant 30 and 40 ac as the unclued. The other unclued aren't actually names of famous themed jewels, but different types of the same. For instance, 29 ac?

Thanks AJT. Have 29a, 27a & 4a. Will muddle on.
Any explanation for 6d? Billy-oh ?

That's very much an English colloquialism (sp?): you might say "It hurts like billy-oh" - so fiercely.
The wordplay comes from billow, for wave, 2 extra letters, and h for hard

By the way, Zardoz, a couple of us have remarked that it would be useful to be able to hold the question in view whilst replying. Any ideas?

Thanks AJT. British colloquialisms are often a mystery.
Re viewing -- couple of options:
1) open another window with the same page, split the screen, then reply in one of them.

OR
2) use the < & > buttons to flip back and forth. Do NOT refresh, or you might lose the reply.

I do the same as Zardoz
