The unclued light at 14A is evading me: oli?
I have olio or olid as options but neither seems to make sense.
Also, I don't have all the spare letters to make the phrase. I have spare letters from 24A, 35A, 40A, 5D, 6D, 15D, 25D and 30D so am 3 short. Are these the right clues and which other clues should I be looking at? I don't want the letters, just the relevant clues please.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Of your spare letters the J and one A are wrong but you can almost make out the phrase from what you've got. Anyway it appears in the grid in a contiguous series of 11 cells starting horizontally, then diagonally and finally vertically. The three words you mention go with the first part of the phrase not the last.
