I am still wondering how you get J for 11A.

Thanks for correcting me on 3D.
I also can't explain portions of 12A and 17A.
I do not yet have 1, 21, 24.
I wonder if 24A is a synonym of allegorical.

2D. The first 4 letters can be seen at night and then supporting 2 for church. The word does mean formality.
But do not know which part of instruction would apply.

Is the first word of 19A a proper name?
IS 18D an anagram?

Sorry, I copied hankir's post but then started annotating it halfway through. I get 4D now, thanks.

Pendragon, just worked out 19ac from what you said. Fits perfectly.

23D: Think of a 3 letter word for cut. Then remove k from week. Add the last letter to get a synonym of bound.

14D. Think of Dallas airport.

16D. I can't explain the last 4 letters but empty study and add two learners. Then think of the content of a course.

Thanks, teenieleek, that explains 5D

I agree that I have your four answers (plus 22A) without any real reason.

17A – P “rhyming” for the last three letters?

And I can’t get a y into the answer for 12a! I shall keep trying.

Cheers, hankir! I got 16D from your hints (can't explain the last 4 letters either) and 14D (I'd only got as far as the river and then I forgot to check out cities).

Are you OK for 3 down?
