@Chris
in 24a the last 3 letters = bad/unwell
The whole is an unpleasant person (dated expression)

that gives me 18d, and thus sorts out 22a. still can't see the parsing, though.

Oh, I've just seen 22a. Third letter is accounted for by first three letters of clue.

That's good, castafiore. I wasn't reading "tear" correctly.
