All done except for 29 down, which I simply do not understand. There is an obvious sporting legend who would fit the letters I have, but I cannot parse it. A hint would be most welcome.

Chrise, thanks for trying to help me, but your hint is too subtle for my feeble brain. Could you be a little more explicit please?

It’s obscure. Pensile means suspended, but (without) is backwards and n (noon), so PE (N SI) LE

Chrise, sorry but I totally misunderstood your post: I realise now that you wanted me to send you the clue and the letters I already had.

That's OK. I thought yours was a rather odd response!
