Ah, I think I've answered my own question! I've written out what's needed to the left of the grid, read along each line and ... confirmed my original hunch. Interesting how a misunderstanding of the rubric can lead to more trees than wood!

Thanks a lot. Got there in the end after puzzling over significance of word in first row.

've just got started on this, my first Genius. I've got a problem with 24d and 26a. I think I've got them both, but the crossing letter isn't the same. Any help welcome!

Pog, 24d. has an extra word. The definition is 'poet's frequently'. Parses as 1+2 letters.

Thanks Mattron - I've got it now. I think I was a bit ambitious in trying a Genius!

I am happy with my solution to 22 across and believe the clue contains an extra letter.
I have spent days wracking my brain but still can’t spot it.
A nudge in the right direction would be appreciated, please.

Hi Hapless,

The extra letter is in the first word and, when removed, leaves a verb meaning 'to position, arrange' etc -
