As usual I have one annoying clue left. I have the 9 unclued entries, the film, the star and the co-star, but what on earth is 28 ac 'endlessly obsessive gossip'?(3). I have A?A, but can't make anything fit!

Ana, gossip - from Anal, obsessive.

Thank you Malone. I had been through all possibilities in Chambers, but had missed the furthest definition!

All done but still can’t get 27dn Politician’s early life (3) Politcian I can understand but the rest!! MA ?
Please put me out of my misery.

May - the politician and also an early part of life, as defined in Chambers.

Got everything except 9d lap? And 29d) a?hed. Thanks for any help!

9 D. Napa, leather . Nap = best bet +A, one.

29. Ached. There's a misprint in the second word.

PS I'm in a rush, no time to type out the clues!

Jadzia, the 'star' in 7 A is real.

Morning jadzia49, 29 has a misprint in the clue (change pint), ached. 9, napa (leather)

Finished this clever, if at times frustrating, puzzle. However, I cannot parse 4d (British are ready outside fortress). Probably staring me in the face.
