Finished but could someone please explain why 25dn is tureen apart from it being a dish?

wooden=treen

Thank you Ixion, I sometimes miss the most obvious things. Puzzle wasn't up to usual Genius standard I thought.

Re 12ac: I think the definition is "act", with "top of skimpy" giving S, + 3 letter synonym for "outfit".
I've got an answer for 27dn - there's effectively only 1 unchecked letter - but can't parse it. Explanation from anyone please?

i thought X in h (ten in hospital) ??

That's what I've got s'lover. But what does it mean, and how does it square with the rest of the clue?

I thought maybe it was 1 in Vietnamese but no it's not! Hopefully some bright spark will enlighten us. Have you found the aforesaid solution online??

It means beautiful in Vietnamese - any good?

I got no further than you have, s'lover. I presume it is xinh, but I still can't see why.

That's the clue that bothered me too Peterm...best I can suggest is xinh as in xinh mun, vietnamese ethnic group.

Thought a vietnamese golfer(putting) of that name might be an option but can't find one.
