Hi Rocky, 11a parses 6,1,1,1. Ignore the capitalisation.

Then I will hold off for now Jono as that is still not making sense.

Sorry, scratch that. Makes perfect sense. Very smart clue in fact.

Thanks for the hints to the theme, which I had missed - 18 now explained.

One question left - my answer to 16 fits "bailiff", but I don't see the threshold reference. Perhaps my answer is wrong?

My favourite was 8d.

Hi Chris, the answer splits 2,3

I have an answer for 1d but can't quite see why.

Thanks simon
1d the "cock" is "up". I could say more, but I'm getting close to spoiling!

Erk! I had the wrong first letter. Thanks, Chris

Again, 29d has an obvious answer but but definition is lacking in my limited vocabulary.

Actually I've realised people do use that word to mean that. I take it back. Brockwell does this to you and I like it.

A good one. I was very held up though by putting in an answer for 19d that I think is equally valid as the actual answer (I had a different three letter word for the start ending with a different letter, which also makes what I think is a common phrase).
