Thanks “Buddy” !
Having sorted the beast, only one word would fit down, so that was easy enough!

After the struggle with Listener, I filled this grid in about an hour, but not really sure what the highlight shows, or I have it right. I have 44 cells shaded. Unlike previous poster.

I seem to have 45 but it does say to highlight the 'treated letters' and the 2 other words and that gives 37.

Either way, I'm not sure if the highlighting represents anything.
