19d military manoeuvres = ops, moving water = tide => tOPSide
47a probably depends on answqer to 39 but looks like SPITTLE - anagram of step(s)+lit

Bibblebub- 'spittle' is what i came up with but I couldn't see any relevance to the clue/definition.
Question Author
The answer IS 'spittle' - clue is not referinng to the '39 steps' (book) the 39 is 39 across (where the answer's 'saliva')! Good,clever clue!
