15 Truism, bromide, platitude.

36 Honour, respect. Hour, occasion, with No, dissident voter.
29. The usual Ordinary, then a very famous pop diva (US) leading to a colour/type of paint in the US.

10.Misprint in last word. A usual two letter 'church', with 'case of rouge' = standard crossword device to result in two letter inside, and then a three letter meaning 'by way of'.

Thanks NAC.
Got Hamilton in 9d. Actress Thompson would have been a better indication for me.

Hour for Occasion is a new usage for me.

I was stuck on via for by way of.

I thought NHS was the Medical Body in UK.
Thanks, Hankir - I suppose the NHS is more our health care system? The 'medical body' made me think of an association, union etc so took me straight to the answer.

Yes, I wondered if my 'by way of' might not help - so I added that it was at the end of the answer!

Thanks Nac.

Your Association hint helped. I just took the American body and changed the first letter to B.

I have the name from Across as 2, 7. The down clue name is 3,6?

I am missing the first letter of 6.

The names do not mean much but I will google them.
Thanks, Hankir. The Down name is just one word.You need an R for 6.

Thanks NAC.

The down name eludes me.
The first three letters I have are Mr. Reagan. Last three is a snow sport.
Hankir, you need a letter before Mr Reagan (the first three letters then become another V American word! That's just an aside). Yes, your last three are fine,

Thanks.
I forgot to mark the first misprint.

I have Bo and Jacob.

Don't know either's works.
Hankir, thnaks. I was in the same position, but a quick read online showed me what they had in common....
