Hi Fossil and thanks for a great puzzle -- I watched Panthera solve it on Twitch just now and it went down very well 👍

Ha, Henri's done my work for me - how kind! But yeah, I stand in for the wonderful Matt & Rachel when they can't do their usual Cryptic Sunday stream, and Fez recommended that I give your puzzle a go. I'm glad he did too, because it was a blast; tricksy in places, but witty and cleanly set, especially with regards to the omissions. My top three, in clue order because I'm rubbish at ranking things, would be 32a, 1d & 18d. Thanks for sharing, and welcome; I think you'll be well-liked here!
