Cryptic crossword No 2,669

Thanks, a fun crossword. I feel like a tit for not solving 20a! Favs were 1a and 7d.

Nice and fun with a lot on the theme. Faves were 24a, 15a (COTD), 6a, 1a and 7d

Very neat! Faves include 1a,13a,15a and 5d,7d,14d (NHO but good wordplay)

Impressive grid fill. A few eyebrows raised with some of the cluing but, in the light of the theming, churlish to snipe. I liked 6a, 12a, 15a, 24a, 4d, 7d and 21d (COTD). Thanks. PM
