Hi, can’t parse:
27a Film legend in two parts (7)
Looks like Tootsie
6d Upright expert’s device on tv (5)
Tuner fits the crossing letters.
18d Back distresses Rodney somewhat getting up (7)
Endorse? I see the endor from distresses Rodney somewhat, but not the final se.

Could you indicate which are the confirmed letters for the others, please? I don't see parsings for either of your suggestions (though a NUT might be an expert?)

Hi bernie
Shouldn't it be "legends" in the clue, then?

I still don't see TUNER!

Chris, isn't Tuner just Re, on, and Nut, expert, with Upright leading to Tuner as it's a Down clue?

...isn't a Tootsie just a toe, one toe, so still a Leg end?
