    Very nice! Fresh long entries. Also liked the clues; 20A, 13D, and 28A were clever, 36D was funny, but 56D was hilarious. Certainly some glue (34A) but very gettable. A few opinions:
    • I liked 37A but felt the clue was a little bit askew; maybe “4x4 ride during a safari, colloquially”
    • I see 6D as more Australian slang than British, so I might have chosen “Bruce”.
    • I didn’t quite get 51A.

      Thanks for the thoughtful comments! The clue for 51A comes from the idea that a criminal defendant should be guilty "beyond the shadow of a doubt". I agree, though, that the clue is clunky.
