Look at BBC4, sunray!

Thanks kirky. I now have the name.

My missing letters are not correct but am not going to bother to correct them.

The number seems to be obvious.

Now please can someone help me with 25a and 25d. I was doing so well...
The French actor...
AND No end of polish given to imitation rock

I'm late joining this...

Orson - 1,7 doesn't work for the numbers, you need a slight variation!

Jogamel,
25a was answered before. $ letter word related to grandparents reverse. Or what a volcano spews out. Plus N plus T.
I had not heard of this actor.

Once you get the first letter of 25a, 25d may be easy.

Thanks orson.
No BBC4 here. PBS may show it at some point.

Thank you Sunray. I knew there was a word relating to grandparents but for the life of me couldn’t think of it.

Hi malone. I don't see where I've gone wrong with the number. It says shade 24 cells altogether and I make it 16 for the person's name, leaving 8 for the relevant number. Not that I ever enter the puzzle as I don't like chocolates.

Orson, it was the 1,7 that troubled me - one of the 7 would have been already used, I think. I have a slightly different configuration!

malone, I can see a way of getting the same answer as orson - but split into two parts and starting at the second letter of 32a.
But are you saying the number is not 1, 7?
