Hi, stuck on these from yesterday.

15a Show drama beginning with hellish location (7). Crossing letters suggest Display, but I can't see where the hellish location fits in.

24a Attack impudent talk about parrot (7). Pillory?

27a Useless stuff from American soldier - maiden breaks down (9)

15 Dis is defined in Chambers as 'the infernal world', so hellish location seems fine. It's used quite often in puzzles.

Dis = Hell

27 GI m(aiden) cracks

27 Gimcracks, useless stuff. GI, American soldier, M, maiden and Cracks, breaks down.

24. Pillory, attack. Lip = impudent talk, about = Pil, then Lory, parrot.

Thank you both. Dis, lory and gimcrack all new to me.

Glad we could help.
