22 not a good clue. The "holder" is something you might use for carrying, with an anagram around it
14d also poor. It's a state. There's an anagram of "sonnet" inside a not particularly common girl's name

Thanks Chris and cerasus. I'm ashamed to say that I
still can't get 19 and 20d.

19 is quite nice. List your components alphabetically!
20 is a reversed hidden

Isn't 3d great, though!

Thanks for the explanation of 22a Cerasus. I had an answer but came onto the forum specifically to understand the parsing. I still haven't finished last week's though, but I'm plodding away!

Hi Mondrian
I'm afraid your G is wrong. It's a partial anagram around a colour, definition "film"

Hi mondrian, If you still need help for 8dn
The last three letters of 7Ac are the soldier (common crossword clue)
That gives you the first word of 8dn
The first and last words of 8dn are an anagram of "part in then"
The middle word is a four letter colour.
Just in case you need it- the film stars Peter sellers
