Whilst on here, , I'd like help with this one:-
47 Down - Part in " A Midsummer Night's Dream", the fourth often referred to in theatre? (4) -A-L

Thanks rocketman. 47d is WALL a character in the play and the fourth wall in the theatre

Thanks, Gooner. I checked out the characters in the play, but didn't see him, so it must have been a very minor part.

rocketman - It's not mentioned in the cast list but it's a part in the play within the play put on by the "rude mechanicals"

That's interesting - I didn't know that.

31a Arrange where to get train after opening tree nursery (10)
p?a?t?t?o?
Looks like plantation, plan and station, but I can't see where in the clue we're told to drop the first letter of 'station', so I might be wrong.

39d Baskets of small molluscs (8)
?c?t?l?s
Scuttles? But I thought a scuttle was a metal container not a basket.

"after opening"=take the letters after the first one.

1st def of scuttle in Chambers is "shallow basket"

Thanks, and thanks to gooner for the earlier answer to 47d, a horrible clue for such a simple word.

44d I can't help you press for money, indeed not (5).
D?N?O.

50d African create just born, it's properly announced (3).
G?U so it must be gnu but why?

DUNNO
DUN - press for money (as a bailiff might)

GNU sounds like NEW (just born.
Is the second word really "create"
