Thanks Chrise

I was thinking Oceanbath!!!!!!

What about a hint for 27,28. Another one that has stymied me. I haven't got many crossers yet.

It's an anagram + ON (working)

Thanks Chrise

You were right. it is a relatively easy one. I managed to get 27,28 before seeing your reply. In fact I've finished all bar one which is 14d. Showing no shame, a compiler's in sacred place (5-4)
I have S?T?E ?A?E. Any hints please - have I got the right crossers?

There are a number of others I can't parse. 16d - the second word - where does fox come in? 26ac - what has the predator got to do with the answer? and more besides.

Thanks for your help.

Roof, I'm not doing this puzzle and I haven't even looked at it online. For 14 D I think your first letter is wrong - I can see a 'sacred place', one that's been in the news recently. (I could well be wrong!)

Roof, fox = confuse.

For 14, read the answer as 4 words.

Thanks Scorpiojo
I was expecting that meaning, but failed to spot the connection. Thanks for pointing it out.

Thanks Malone

I didn't think the S was right, so thanks for that.

I couldn't think of a sacred place that had been in the news recently, but my husband could. So thanks for that. I can't quite see the showing no shame, but enough is enough. I've now finished.

Roof, glad I could help. For 14, scorpio's idea works - ??? ??? A ?? (the letters of the answer).

I can't see the sacred place in 14d. Is the S right or wrong? S?T?E ?A?E, Showing no shame a compiler's in sacred place. And 26ac, Predator caught in northerly forest. T?I?A is pretty clear as a northern landscape but where's the predator? Is my T correct? Have a good Sunday everyone.
