I have done most of this including one of the unclued entries. Part of the link would seem to be On the feast of Stephen but Good King Wenceslas doesn't fit in the other bits which are unclued. So, I am stuck on 15ac along with 8d and 35ac which are linked somehow to this and the letters I have are hu??ing ?h??i?d - there are three words within those two. Sorry this sounds rather complicated.

Read the title ALOUD and then the last sentence of the preamble (silently, if you like!) for a hint.
Question Author
Still can't work it out. Will have to concede defeat.
The first sentence of the preamble says, "as SPOKEN of in the title"; that is why I suggested you read that title ALOUD. What is one word, 'Rentokil', may be HEARD as three words, so apply that phrase to the three - not two - words you outline in your question. It is then a matter of using Chambers and Brewer's to get 15 across also.

These clues are so central to the whole crossword that even I have to draw the line at just telling you! (Believe me, I wouldn't normally have any qualms about providing a Listener answer.)
15ac TROGLODYTES - wren - ref RENTOKIL (title)

8d Hunting the bird - an Irish custom on st Stephens Day (NOBLE - Boston Library)

any idea as to what one should "highlight"?
