Really struggling with my last one: is it a witch?
2D Graduate's tree: commander's witch 4/4. I have ?a?a/?a?a

Lived in hut on chicken's legs....

Thanks, chrise. I'll have to think about that!

Google had to come to the rescue - never heard of it/her.

A hint that will need Google, I suspect!

I'va problem with two

22a not happy with the definition
Arbiter securing Spain's chain (4)

21d can't see the wordplay
Hunter to beat troops up, on reflection (6)

Orson Scott Card gives her a pivotal role in his novel "Enchantment", which also gives an explanation of the "hut on chicken's legs".

She also features in Mussorsgky's "Pictures at an exhibition"

22ac Think we probably have same answer - I also can't equate it with 'chain'.

21d - Royal Marines are troops.

I'd say that the one near Australia could fairly be described as a chain.

Thanks both

...but I agree that it's pretty unsatisfactory as a definition.
