Just saw where I went wrong. Don't take the last of hot, the, apprentice. You take hot from the and then the last of apprentice.

I've got 25d from other solutions, but I don't understand its parsing - can anyone explain, please?
Racer, perhaps, briefly exposed following its profile (5)
I see "NAKE" as "briefly exposed", I think! It's profile could be "S-shaped", but why "racer"?

Odd, that GK - I agree about ELO, but most people I knew (myself included) who liked Yes also liked ELP. Both did evolve into major pretentiousness, though.

Racer is a type of snake.

I'm having terrible trouble with 2dn. Can't even parse the clue. Assuming my 1ac is correct I have: H?U?A??.

Any clues would be very gratefully received.
