32 Across: Knitted footwear allowing stars to conserve energy (7).
I have B?O?E?S. Looks like BOOTEES, but I cannot parse it. Help please - last one!

There's a constellation or set of stars called Bootes, put an E for energy inside (conserving).

There's an umlaut on one of the os in the constellation (I can't do one either, chips!), so it is pronounced something like "b oh oh tees"

TonyB, glad I could help - I'd looked it up at the weekend, when I did the puzzle.
ChrisE, thanks for that. I always ignore all accents when typing, too much bother!
