Two regular clues, if you please -

Get sick in lung (not heart) in turn, it's to do with brain tissue (5) GLI??

Tell the last two to leave the table (5) ??UNT

Thanks in advance

2 The definition is 'tell' as in what they do in the bank! You're removing the last two letters of a table, worktop etc..

Thanks, I was miles off with that one! Helps with 31d too, which I was also misdirected on

Your crossers are all correct. For the first, 3-letter 'get sick' inside 2-letter 'lung (not heart)', all reversed.
For the other, 'tell' as in 'make something tell' for the definition. 7-letter table minus the last two letters.

A pleasant diversion. 39a brought back memories of my climbing days and I enjoyed the cheekiness of 3d. Thank you, Fieldfare.

Just cracked the unclued 3D, finally. A bit obscure for this antipodean solver...
