Thanks, Brendan. 18a is a wonderful clue, then. Don't quite understand the Spoonerism. I don't have a c anywhere. Crossers are l?l? m?d ??

You have the right answer for 17d (Hurriedly) but the Spoonerism is My Clad which, at least in the opinion of the setter, sounds like the answer - once you've switched around the initial letters of each word.

Hi Dscutler,

3d definition is "Jewish patriarch" and is A + "Hindu God" with the M (minutes later) moved down.

24a definition is "Comic character" (this is just one of several personas he adopts) and is the first 4 letters (not half) of an 8 letter synonym for "landed".
