When intervals repeat they, 'r???? + the TV drama you mention (a letter of which is extra) the answer's an obscure word
'animation' is an anagrind in 32 and the extra letter comes from the 2nd word in the clue - the answer is a foreign word.

Granama, for 32a take boo(k) and the odd letters of memoir and form an anagram. I'm stuck on 1a too.

1 across is a five letter intransitive verb meaning repeat (as in happen again) + ER.

32 is an anagram of BOOK MeMoIr which gives you a Swahili-derived word for woodland + an extra letter.

You wait half an hour for a bus and then...

Thanks both! That's great and gives me a fit with 23d which was holding me back with the grid fill.

(Stupidly I'd tried anagramming with the even letters in 33a - doh!).

Thanks all. It was worth waiting on that bus. The last eight posts really help.

I think I have now finished this except for adding the letter to reveal the name of another order. Some orders I have found in a glossary, but others are more elusive. Can anyone point me to where I might find them - not a pastime I’m familiar with.

It certainly was worth waiting Lumen! 32a unlocked things for me and confirmed that I was OK with the SE corner. Oddly, I'd put the right entries in at 4a and 15d quite early on and the grid quickly filled with all the cold solves and that gave me the few I had missing. Still a few unparsed and therefore a couple of missing letters but I have the instruction.

I think I'll leave it there and see what others ask, rather than google-bashing the words, given some are incomplete and what has been said earlier.

Thanks again kind helpers!

The link I found most useful gives too much away in the URL, but try googling: Michael Anthony Williams call collection
