15a. “Colonel” whose thwarted attempt to steal the crown jewels from the Tower of London is commemorated there with a variety of red velvet chocolate cake (5)
32a. The hum of bees or of voices in conversation; a euphoric rush; an atmosphere of excitement; or, a whispered rumour or report (4)
35d. From Latin for “flat”, a diagram on a flat surface of a 3-D object such as a building; or, an aim (4)
