Help required to complete this crossword, thanks in advance. 48d A bishop flies early on--other religious types too (6). I think it starts with AB?O??. Is the word abbots and if so how is this arrived at. I can see it could be AB from start of clue then I am clueless. Also 56a Petitioned to collect waste put aside (9). I have.
??S?E?D?D. Is this SUSPENDED, if so how is the word arrived at. Could be I have some letters wrong if so please let me know. Thanks again.

Than you also Calibax for your quick response. I can now forget this weeks crossword and wait for next Saturday's. You and mac44 are my saviours this week, both have a pleasant day. It will be for me if Scotland do well in the rugby.
