Hippocratic oath - anag 'actor' + 'i' (one) + 'co(mpany)' (all in) 'hip path' (trendy way)

Allot - 'all' (completely) + 'O(ld) T(estament)'
I found it hard too - still can't do 16a - Idol, notice,following heart, frequently extreme? Far from it (6-2-3-4)

Don't understand 19d Allot??

Thank you!

Middle of the road!
19 All + OT (old Testament)
ignore me - sorry
Middle-of-the-road - 'hero + ad' (idol + notice, following) 'middle' (heart) + 'oft' (frequently)
Thanks for that
Found these clues OK, but 3d 'Food made of dough by middle of day' (5) p-s-a must be PASTA. Get the final 'A', but what is the link between 'dough' (presumably money) and 'past'?
by = past as in gone by?
Past (by) + (d)a(y)
Thanks DannyK and Scorpiojo. So definition part of clue is the whole of 'food made of dough' - easy for me to miss the significance of a little preposition like 'by'.
You're welcome
