15d is a double defn, something you might say to the character in the clue.

Yeah I see that but it's a bit loose the cluing of the second word I thought (to get some distance from).

Agreed it's not the most inspired clue.
But I'm always proud of solving a Paddington clue...didn't know of him, needed several failures to absorb the GK.

I agree about the second word - see post 30!

I would have preferred 16A to not reference the Greek Princess but instead reference what PJ & Duncan (AKA Ant and Dec) say after "watch us wreck the mic, watch us wreck the mic, watch us wreck the mic" in their classic song "Let's get ready to rumble".

Well done Lucertola, IMHO, the longer the PDM takes to arrive, the more gratifying it is:-)
