4ac Audio equipment taking call from gambler, being on another planet (7)
Ans. Headset
2d Group seeing potential disaster for the human cannonball? (5)
Ans. Nonet
10ac Drinker on drugs recovered
Ans. Toper

I know that a Headset is audio gear, that a Nonet is a group and that a Toper is a drinker but I don’t understand how the other parts of the clues fit.

Late start today (golf this morning!) Have you noticed that in two clues (15ac and 29ac), Paul has confused crustaceans with molluscs? Not like him to make mistakes.
