Quite a straightforward theme and mechanics, but high quality clues throughout and a nice challenge in the endgame. I'm not sure why the second instruction is required. Thanks JFD.

I did find a number of the clues hard going and two of the thematics were solved initially from crossers rather than the clues.

Mrs Bradford's esteemed book was also very helpful for the end game.

Overall, enjoyable, thanks JFD.

I made heavy weather of this. I don't think I was on the setter's wavelength right from the start. I still have 9d to parse (even though the entry cannot be anything else).

The endgame was fine. I too wondered why the four letters had to be highlighted.

Thanks, JFD.

 

If my parsing of 9d is correct, then I would have to say it is not one of the better clues in the puzzle by a long way.
