There's a missing grid! Some answers have 5 or 9 letters, but there are no lights of these lengths. Another Grauniad misprint, methinks!

Thanks mrcodger. I looked at the instructions and decided not to bother - you've confirmed that this was the right decision!

If you get the crossword from the guardian website, there are two grids. Very entertaining. Not especially difficult.

Excuse me. I must have had a senior moment. The two grids are indeed different. How did I think they were the same? Apologies if I alarmed others and put them off trying the puzzle.

Very enjoyable I thought. Just one left, and would be grateful for a hint please:

The second part of the X clue is "...having hen as dodgy classical figure"

I have S?S?EX

An English geographical area would fit, but can't parse it!

Thank you...

Apologies - almost as soon as I posted the question, the answer came to me!
