Gitto, I thought it was nonsense till I thought about the words used to denote thematic items....

Thanks for the encouragement greengage, 121424 make any sense?

Still bamboozled by 32 and 26 which are driving me up the wall.

Finally got a full grid with all of my 43 answers in it, correctly according to the preamble, probably incorrect though. The inspector in the instruction is really confusing me.

Not sure about the parsing given earlier for 32. If you have the answer look up the last 5 letters in the BRB cf the 3rd from last word. I make the definition the last 2 words.

(As always, I may be wrong of course).

Granama1, I think you are parsing Trapdoor 32, while the earlier parsing was for Spinning 32a

Ah...oops. 🫤

You're quite right Quisling. I've had the Trapdoor one rattling around in my head for so long I got target fixation!

Could someone please give me a nudge with trapdoors 13 and 32. I have seen the earlier posts re 32 but still can't crack it.

I now have 32!

Ukridge, Trapdoor 13 def. is first 4 words. Parses as 4, (with extra letter), 1,1,3.
It's not a word I have ever heard, but it is in Bradford's.

Thank you Mattrom
