36 Balm, it's one of the 'special clues', involving answers from slightly scrambled letters.- Matakari omitted some crucial information!
bo(x)er and raw back looks good for 5d. Have you put wrong pattern down?

26a is Irish slang for girls around 'H' = 200
48a - another 'special' - mix is in the penultimate word
20a - Definition is dozen and you need an old word for 12. Mix is in the second word.
20a is Scots dialect - a 'special' - mix is in the 2nd word.

Many thanks, all!
You're welcome, Matakari. I hope you'll remember to include vital extra information next time, it's a little unfair otherwise!
