I cannot work out 6d. It's part of a clue whose full answer, I believe is a short phrase "?a?e Gooseberry". The clue for 6,16,28 is:
Cover unwanted third with...(4,10)
I ended up with the letters: ?a?e g?o?e b?r?y

The other one is 25d
Turtle in the mystery plays (4) E?y? is it emys, or eryp? I cannot find either.

Explanations warmly welcomed.

With Google I learnt that emys is a genus of turtle, so that's one done.

Cape (=cover). Cape gooseberry links to 7D.

I see. I did get Physalis but didn't know what it was/is.
Thank you.

Both EMYS & PHYSALIS were hidden in the clues
