16d first 5 letters - protection from wind; last 3 = top pilot such as one in Battle of Britain' answer is a film

23a def is provide new container for

You will know which way round it is once you have solved 16d :)

Still couldn't get it so looked it up -never heard of it unfortunately.

Thanks to Everyman, I think this continues the run of good efforts.

FOI 1a, LOI 5.
COD 12 over 1d and 19. Liked quite a few other clues.
The doubling of a word in clue 3 seems dubious, though perhaps justifiable if part of the clue is stressed (as if spoken).

I wonder...Vlad's recent Prize 28,793 and this Everyman include films by the same (US) director (who I dislike, for what that's worth)...perhaps Vlad had a hand in this puzzle?

A bit trickier than usual I thought this one.

Hi all. Unusually few comments on this Everyman. . . .
Unable to solve 14A despite the forum's hints. Also stuck on 15A, 6D and 13D. Hints appreciated.
Hope you're all staying cool.

Hi Barry,

6d - hidden

13d - 3 letter "minister" + 2 letter "church" + 5 letter "having disagreement" - definition is "speak with delicacy"

15a - Single letter "Everyman" + 2 letter "finally did change" + A - definition is "lightbulb (moment) in a manner of speaking"

14a - single letter "united" + 4 letter "appoint" + 4 letter "wealthy" minus its last letter/endlessly + single letter "Australian" + single letter "dietician ultimately" - definition is "opposed to apple pie" (think of a country related to apple pie)

Thanks, Brendan. All clear now

That's great, thanks Barry:-)
