I agree this was tricky - and a strange mix of general knowledge and quite complex clues, though I love 1a and 10a.

I’m pretty sure I have 2d but am missing the parsing - can someone give me a clue?

2d One letter for Norse inside god + Odin’s first + word for ‘finally’, missing (wanting) it’s last letter.

Hywel I need force fed. Short of someone giving the answer to 13d I'll wait for 15 squared. Too many GKs in this for me.

Hi all, my query today is - in 6d is two-master a typo with the last letter incorrect or can two-master mean the word it represents?

StevieC, the middle 5 letters are the two-master

Hi Jono. I get that and maybe my first post was not totally clear. The 5 letter word that two-master represents would it not make more sense if the last letter in two-master was changed is what I meant in the first place.

Ah, I see. A ‘two-master’ (noun) is in Chambers and describes this thing

Thanks Jono. As for 13d, thanks forum people for helping solve this one.

Dog's Breakfast of a clue is so apt.
