Posted in Riddles by accident , so here goes again:

My grid is full but I'm not sure I have corrected all the clashes?
i have clashes in 1a, 8d,11a,10d 28a and 14a/d

For 33a Little darlings , reverse of serious about life abroad - I have Da vie s, but how do "darlings" fit in?

Thanks for any help/explanations

[Helveticus]

33a darlings = "dovies" perhaps (I don't have an OED to check). I am puzzled about resolving the clashes: in at least 6 cases there are two possibilities, both of which give real words. I can't "deduce" which to enter.

These may be wrong but I've gone with:
though & chap
spots/plovery
stripling/roul
often/fides
Which others do you have helveticus?
