Thanks JB - see it now. On to the next stage.

I enjoyed this week. Started off a little slow for me, but ramped up towards the middle and end. I think I had a few more PDMs than the typical solver as I had to work through 2-3 mistakes that I somehow made early on.

I like the slightly taller than wide grid boxes to provide a more pleasant form to the final result.

I haven't devoted enough time to this to throw up my hands, but tomorrow is my last chance to send it off and I'm not making much progress in the centre to be confident of finishing.

A hint for 8d - agitate or push.... would be much appreciated. I thought it was an anagram, with definition the last three words, but I'm not seeing it and wonder if I'm missing an alternative way of looking at it. Perhaps it is an anagram but I'm picking up the wrong words?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Whistler, my answer is an anagram - using the obvious four words...

Thanks, Malone. That was just enough to make me persevere. I guessed the ending and eventually worked out the order of the first four letters. I think I tried every permutation!

Thanks, Whistler. My help was definitely on the meagre side, but I felt you didn't really need much!

Enjoyed this. The two letters to a cell made it fairly challenging I thought.

I have 2 loose ends, one minor and one very large. The minor one is 32d - presume the misprint is in the first word but can't see it. Could someone let me know which letter changes.

Second, and more fundamentally, I don't get the significance of the final two characters. How could they precede the other 4? Can anyone give me a hint without giving too much away? Im confident I have the right highlighting given the title, but I just don't see it.

As usual, straight after I post, I see it. So just the 32d letter please.

In 32d the misprint is the 4th letter of the 1st word.

Aahh - ruled that out based on the more obvious meaning, should have double checked for others. Thanks
