Thanks Chrise and Brendan

I finished, and on about the umpteenth reading of 27d, I noticed the "not" in the clue, which led me to the intended spelling.

Thanks for the explanation for 21ac. It was one of several I just couldn't parse.

I can go to bed happy now. A bientot.

Hi,
14a ‘private’ is an example of this. It’s a two letter abbr. for senior with another word for senior in the middle
28a your G is wrong. The answer is hidden in the clue. Look for a ‘regular‘ pattern in espionage for 25d

Started this before the FA Cup Final and one of the first answers I got made me think the setter was thinking about the final. If I'm right he will be a happy bunny.
