34a seems to have a letter missing! (Finnock)

How many letters in Juggernaut?

[dannyk13]

34a.Finnoc

[Buenchico]

Well done, LiK. That must be an alternative spelling.

[Buenchico]

. . . or Danny's spelling could be correct!

[puzzlemaniac]

53a - could be artic - as in articulated lorry, but pls advise number of letters even if you don't know what any of them are

[Lie-in King]

Chris, it's in Chambers as such :-)

[Lie-in King]

If it's 6 letters, Chambers only shows the 'a' spelling

[Mamyalynne]

Finnac

Definitions
from The Century Dictionary and Cyclopedia
n. The white trout, a variety of Salmo fario.

[dannyk13]

In several on line diictionaries as finnoc.

[slaney]

Multiple variations in the spelling to be found, but I'm pretty sure the Didymus in the Generalist will go for the Chambers 6 letter variation- finnac

Have just found the puzzle - if 48d is 'Haaf', then 53a is indeed looking like 'Artic', as suggested by puzzlemaniac above
