I thought this puzzle lacked the sparkle of some of Petitjean’s earlier Toughies.

This puzzle is a bit like Baby Bear’s bed, not too hard but not excessively soft. There are a couple of clues (21d for example) where the answer is fairly obvious but you have to think about the wordplay. Let us know how you got on.
If you found it more like Daddy Bear’s bed then you can reveal the answers by dragging your cursor through the spaces between the brackets under the clues.
