Struggling here. I don't get the wordplay with a lot of these clues, so I'm not sure if the few I've solved are correct.
May I have a hint for 24a please?
Have Her Majesty in charge of German court. (7)
Thanks

Is it definitely 7 letters? I've got a good/possible word but it has only 6 letters.

Possibly GERICHT (German for a court):
ER=Her Majesty
IC = in charge
--- but that doesn't seem complete to me.....................

Sorry. It is 6 letters.

Vehmic or Femich - a German court. (I know you asked for only a hint, but I couldn't come up with anything.) Both these words have HM for Her Majesty and IC for in charge.

Yes --- just arrived at VEHMIC myself!

The VE stands for "have"; the adj. here means OF the court!

Thanks, malone. The wordplay with many of these clues is completely eluding me, so one of those might well be correct.

Thanks, greedy kite.
