34a must be OVER (decapitated LOVER). Fix that A.
62d family = KIN, gee = G, monarch = KIN-G.
56a (part mel) broken, i.e. anagrammed, gives TRAMPLE = tread on.
27a Idealist
56a, trample
45d Slea Head (anagram lees had a)
61 ta (thanks) ke
14a The Banks
27 idealist?
44 Yes, w-ish
44 yes w(est)ish
44 wish (West + ish [sort off] )
67a, sedate
Presume the clue should have read 'teased' then?
67a sedate
sorry D97x7 - didn't see your answer
