Thanks to everyone . What a rapid response team you are. I was almost right with my guesswork !!!! except for as dead as a doornail and Atacama so my brain was in the same doornail state waiting until I was at a calmer state !! A very Happy New Year to you all and now to rest before the Sunday's challenges thump on the doormat !!

1 down NATIVITY
3 down HIGH STREET
14 across EIGHTH
60 across AS DEAD AS A DOORNAIL,
so 58 down is TINY
