Thanks, mathprof. My original guess for 12 was correct, though I doubted it and wound up preferring something different! Doubly funny because I got the other similar (and possibly obscure) geographical reference (clue # redacted to avoid spoiler).

Enjoyed that. Lots of clever connections.

One last niggle, I have the answer to 22, but the only reference to the first part I can think of is Scottish, which clearly must be wrong. Hint appreciated. (Chris, for a while I thought it might have been your WPR word from last weekend, but not to be)

so did i, jono!
for 12, someone earlier gave a geographical hint - not scottish.

Hi Geeker. If you're objecting to tedious old schlock, you'd have to bar 19,25 as well! :-) Just saying...

Stuck on top right corner, 5D, 6D and 8/10A. Hints would be welcomed especially on 8/10.

we're all different, cymro - 8,10 was my foi! it's a biblical reference, with a slang safe

Thanks, Chrise. Mine was 12A which seemed to cause problems for others.
