    Hi, Many thanks to JNHealy and Aaron Boone for the help.

    Thalad, for the clues you're looking for I put:

    17a ORACLE (anagram found in 'low acre')
    73a NOEL (Brother of 49d Stephen Hunt)
    68a EMBARK ('Bark' referring to the 'noisy dog', I think)
    23a I put HERO but I'm not sure which it is.

    Best of luck to all
