The final grid needs a J, so....

Hi cockie, yes, there isn't an extra word in the value.

Sorry drxx and buddy, neither of your replies were there when I began typing.

... and apologies if my first post confused, bloody autocorrect altered clue to value.

That was extremely clever; thank you, Jacques.

I spotted the mechanism of the thematic changes early on, revealed by clashes and the first and last letters of the first couple of extraneous words; but marvelled at how completely the thing was worked through in the final grid.

Everything done (I think) but scunnered if I can find the m to n. 🤔

Mine is in the recycling, but might it be in the bottom row, from memory?

Thanks, Q. So obvious once cued. 😘
