Thanks, jazzyjen, I could not see the parsing for Royal and Shaft.

5d ROYAL - "Lay" and "or"

24d SHAFT

Glad we could help,Matakari.

Thanks, NACW, I found this one quite interesting! I'm going to have a peep at this week's EV hoping it's also interesting.

Thanks,Matakari. In this week's EV, there are no extra words or letters, there are no misprints, there's no alphabetical ordering. The only, minor complication  is that there are clashes (described as 'disputes') in four cells. I found the puzzle to be great fun, and the clues are definitely well within your reach!
