Behind a sitter and a wet sound?

Gosh, what you learn on this site! Thanks, AB.

Thanks AB & ChrisE just the job....

I found this a real beast this week! I spent several hours on it yesterday (perhaps I was tired) and only finished it this morning. Top right corner gave me the most difficulty, but (I think) I got there in the end.

I didn't get my copy until today but finally finished.
11a took ages and 19d I missed the hidden and was trying to anagram "has to" :( Brain definitely not up to par

Can one of you 'Brainboxes' PLEASE parse 23a for me..?
THINK I've 'got it' but can't see WHY..
R:(
