In 19ac, you will have Peter Pan followed by O in an unusual word for stock.

Thanks unclued. Got it. Strewth, this is a toughie. 6a would have gathered dust without help.

I must confess to being completely baffled, not only by the clue to 32ac, for which I have the replacement word, but also to unclued's explanation of the parsing of it. I have the clue as 'LA's stopping Metro....'. So how does 'to cane..' come into it?

Finally twigged all the substitutions, couldn't have done it without the help given, thanks. I think I'll leave the grid-staring until tomorrow.

fgsltw, I think we missed your question about the link in 34dn. Think astronomy.

Thank unclued, that helped there. Still stuck on 19a original answer and 32a original answer and alternative title. Please help.

19 original answer - you need pan + a word for stock around O.
Extra word is Piper.
In 32 to caning = routing.
The positions of the letters in the extra words in clue order go 1 2 3 4 5 5 4 3 2 1. The three words don’t seem to add much.
Hope that helps you to finish.
