Just 1 little niggle...
36d Men killed in area of battlefield clash (4) SE?T looks like "sect" with a misprint in clash ...clasS. How would that parse?

Kirky, that puzzled me too - then I came up with Sector, being an area of battlefield, drop the OR/men killed, and you have Sect, class.

Many thanks ...nice to have it all cleared up.

Kirky, you're welcome.

I'd never heard of the themed creator, or of his gumshoes. Looking into the grid, I was hoping they would be called ANNA PENSIL and ERICA BRET. Trust Google to spoil it! They'd be great names for a pair of amateur snoopers of the retired genteel lady variety.

I’m a bit stuck. Can anyone give a hint for 10a please?

They garble every promotion about drinks? On the contrary (10)
?A?L???ER?

There maybe a misprint in the definition.

Also, I had ANOA for 6d Producer of meal from German oats

with a misprint of Meat for Meal. Is that correct? It doesn’t give me very likely across words, though.

Thank you.

misprint is they Warble ,,, they are singers..
every = all
drinks are beers.....

mano ... hidden in the clue ... no misprint

Never heard of this theme but I did know the Belgian red herring in the middle!

Thank you kirky
