40a Academical - anag 'acclaimed a'
14d Menorca - 'acronym' (NATO, eg) up, with 'E(uropean)' for 'y(ears)'
29d Lamedh - 'lamed' + '(preac)h' (finally)

Many thanks, Lie-in King! I should have seen 40a and 29d, but it's done now!

Just a confirmation for this one:
18d Excitedly interrupted cadences at first giving musical effect (6): ?GO?I? ( AGOGIC )

And I have the hidden lover, a three-letter word, occupying two lines. Is this accepted in crosswords? Thanks again!
