Hi if anyone is still there! I'm new to the forum ... my daughter and I started the crossword and then left it for a few days as we found it unsatisfying but have come back today to finish it. Thanks for all the helpful tips.
We have just one left 49d which we assume is the Z but can't work it out. We have ?n?w. Help please! And happy new year.

Hi and welcome, quirky
I have the Z at 32a. I've lost the clue for 49d, but I think it was just a double definition - does it involve a cricketer? If so, he was quite an old one!

Thanks. Duh! We had Z already but had forgotten to cross it off! Now I realise who the cricketer is. So all done. Great to finish it. Thanks again.

I eventually finished this with 'a bit of help'!
It was tricky but I do appreciate the huge amount of work that Maskerade put into compiling it.
