Kitchen item, say, by diner consuming good bit of bread (3,6) Pretty certain it's EGG BEATER, but why? I am assuming diner is EATER, good is one of the Gs, so how does GBE mean bit of bread?

OK, "Mr Ward". (5). All I can come up with is PARRY, which makes sense with the "ward" bit of the clue (especially as that's the straight clue as well!), but I don't see the Mr connection. Anyone?

Song I have heard on Virgin two or three times in past couple of weeks

Opening verse has a line along the lines "I don't mean to patronise you", then chorus as I remember goes "I love you". Very vague I know, but does anyone have any idea what the song is?

Rope in one of those marginalised here, say (7) Answer=PAINTER Just got to say that is the best clue I have seen for a long time in the DT. It took me a while to work out the second half of the clue...

DT 25216 - Explanation for answers please!

25a. Accountant in China developing the bends - CHICANE. Is this a mistake, as there is not E in China or CA, one assumes the real answer should be CHICANA which it isn't... 21d. Looking to understand...
