Have finished this but just wondering about the following:
12a "Business with land involving severe anxiety" (13)

C?N?T?R?A?I?N The seems to be CONSTERNATION for severe anxiety, but I was thrown by thinking that business = concern for the first half which obviously doesn't fit

I'm probably missing something; or could there possibly be an error in the cluing?

Any help much appreciated

Co is short for company/business
Stern is severe

Land is nation.

And the definition is only "anxiety" as "severe" is is used in the clue to give "stern"

Yes, it was me; thanks rusty

Spoiler alert
Help!I have finished too but struggling with parsing for a couple, which no doubt when it is explained will be so easy!

Man with cheers interrupting broadcast isn't lacking confidence...... answer hesitant?

Much occupying one when about to make expedition...... safari

cheers = ta
he = man
broadcast isnt = sint (anagram)
gives HE SI TA NT

HE man
TA - cheers
SI NT - "isn't" broadcast - anagram

FAR (much) in "one as" backwards (as - when)

man - he
cheers! - ta
+ isnt (anagram)

much - far
one when - i as (reversed)

one when = i as ...reverse it and put far (much) inside

Thanks all frustration over, much appreciated.
