That was somewhere between challenging and brutal. Many unparsed, thanks for all the tips. 3d still remains. Seems like anagram but getting the count right is eluding me. Not to mention that the words that fit don't seem to make any sense together!

I have nothing to brag about, having only finished this, exhausted, on Monday morning, so this is not a brag. But to encourage those tempted to give up, as I was several times, it is doable - eventually, with internet 'research', so repays perseverance!

Khayyam, 3d. is "what?", reversed, in anagram of "to kitten"

Khayyam, your anagram thought is correct. The capitalisation of a word is a little sneaky, devious, clever...

Aha well I like it now I see it! Being locked on starting 'the' was probably what stumped me, thanks.

Well not for the first time I’m coming to this very late but I can’t even see a word that fits in 12. I’m assuming the crossers are correct (7 is annoying, 8 a bird) but I confess I’m totally stumped with one to go 🤬

Finally completed , quite pleased thought it might take until Saturday. Still some parsing a mystery even with hints from forum but really don’t care .
FOI 26a
LOI 18a because of spelling mistake in 16d of course
COD 11a probably other worthy contenders but most of parsing too difficult for me .

Help please! I have just joined this forum as have finally completed this apart from the Spoonerism, which I just cannot see. Any help very much appreciated. I have -r-e / b-l- which I hope are correct.
