belatedly, Thanks Picaroon and thanks and HNY to all the contributors here.

I loved the extraordinary versatile theme, got 25d very quickly and enjoyed the many meanings but still struggling with a few so coming in very late to ask for help. This is me being coldy and stupid since nobody else has queried some of them:
Still to get 13d, 17a, 19a& d, 21a, 22d - gentle pointers appreciated
I have an answer for 13a but cannot see a definition?
To be very pernickety, in the song that I suspect is the most common place to hear of the ‘Bank of Scotland’ it is juxtaposed with a bank so perhaps the clue is slightly misleading, though I see the definitions overlap so it’s probably ok and a COD contender

… of course as soon as I posted 13 jumped out at me, 17 & 21 immediately after so 19d might come soon…

Hi Luko,

19d - 2 letter "cheers" then 2 letter "policeman" (acronym) goes around/'arresting' 4 letter "European"

Them too - doh! So it’s just 22d and the definition in 13a. Could be the second word or first two words,
but I think the ‘one’ is part of the wordplay?

Sorry, missed your other post...

13a - definition - one may get "25" (with a camera)
