11a - I think the last 7 words of the clue form the definition. First letter of the first word gives the first letter of the solution.

Thanks both. I think rogissimo's explanation works better.

Rogissimo is correct. The last four letters of the word come from ‘is not’. Thanks Rogissimo

Thanks jono and chrise. I think there’s also perhaps an &littish flavour to the whole clue.

rogissimo, 11a, think first names.

docrum, for 26a - think of LPs. 27d - one letter for 'good' after three letters for 'people'. Then 6d was apparently one of these for people in the country of Corinth.

enjoyable, foi 10a, loi 22a, cod 23d.

janusz: yes, that’s what I meant by the &lit-ish flavour. The first of the Fab Four named isn’t an 11a by name, whereas the other three are.

I enjoyed this, too, especially after last week's, which had me stumped. I had six or so in the first 15 minutes, which is unusual for me. FOI 8d, then 10a.
Lots of great clues to bring big smiles when the PDM happened. COD, although so many contenders, is 13d.
Nice one, Brendan.
