Thela?

Chela - anag (maybe) '(T)he Cla(w)' (topped & tailed)

Chela?

Is the unclued 17 down red bean or red dean or are they both possible?

I put bean.

Chambers doesn't have red dean for 17d

Check out Red Dean of Canterbury, an (in)famous cleric of the 1950s who supported Stalin. You've got to be a sad old git like me to remember him.

So presumably another oversight by Doc as either could be entered and still be correct.
