Good morning.

I deduced the theme pretty early on and have a full grid apart from 25A:

"Cheers afternoon, taking in TV hospital show".

I have searched Chambers (main dictionary and crossword dictionary) to no avail. If "cheers" and "afternoon" are as per the latter, then I have TA*A*HA. Any help will be gratefully received!

Ah- got it! Thanks!

Lanvastrian, glad that helped. I answered from a bumpy train, and  got it a little wonky. I should have simply said 'a famous US hospital is in the middle', and that would have properly left a definition for the answer! 

One from me if I may - 

One man dropped in first to see new mums  (10)

I only have one letter - ?R???????? - because this clue is holding me back from completing the section of the grid it's in (full-ish grid otherwise) TIA 

That's 12d, by the way. 

I can't think of a hint - so Primiparae, first-time mums. Prime Para and I, one ...

Thanks! I was thinking along the lines of "pre-" somthing. 

Glad I could help, Fleshpots... I'm not good at hinting in clues with multiple aspects!

16 gawpuses

37 sprod

11 Capo,  Cap, international and O, over.

43A CAPO (a moveable bridge on the fingerboard of a guitar etc) 

An international player in football or rugby gets a CAP, taking O for over.
