Enjoyable solve, tho' perhaps more challenging than of late. COD 18a.

Unless I have made a mistake on 15d and 19d I am stuck with - c-p for 18a. Big supporter of CID employee getting a raise.

Any help appreciated!

Swordfish think of initials for ranks in the CID and then 2 letter synonyms for raise. And you get a supporter of large things!

Reasonably straightforward but I appear to have an extra letter in 4a :-(

Thanks! I now get the cup part but is it c cup or d cup. Brain now frozen!

DC ... Detective Constable....

D Cup. Thanks - brain freeze!

I've one to go: 24 down: Archer's release: 'Stuff 'em!' Any ideas?

Shaft, part of an arrow, what an archer shoots - and it also means to stuff em,do wrong by someone etc.

PS As it was your last one, it would have been useful to give the letters you already have. I've done the puzzle, so it was OK for me!

Thanks Malone.
Now for that £100 prize. (Are you shure? - Ed.)
