Cryptic crossword No 1,985

With thanks to Henri for inspiring the idea. Spoilers ...

Another blast of nostalgia. Marvellous! Some cracking disguise and typical cleverness. 24a, 32a, 2d, 4d and 28d were all especially lovely. Couple of tiny half-hmms …

Enjoyed that, Fez. It was all going swimmingly but ended up having to reveal a couple. Favourites 1a, 12a, 17a and 9d, 33a, 1d, 4d, 23d and 28d (COTD)...

You are clearly in your element with this one but you will not be surprised to hear I was largely out of mine. Spotted a few but missed most. Plenty of ticks -I'll highlight 11a, 12a, 17a, 32a, 2d, 9d, 18d as the pick of the bunch for me. Thanks. PM

What a marvellous idea for a theme 😆 I thought I’d unearthed most of them but your notes proved otherwise 🙃 so an award for comprehensive theming is deserved. Liked 1a, 11a, 24a, 25a (surface!), 1d, 9d, 28d and 29d. Cheers!

Another terrific puzle Fez. Always such seemingly effortless ease and wit about your constructions. In a display of such excellence faves are more or less pointless but the superb 12a, 24a & 1d (LOL to both) and 9d stood out for me. Having said that, in 10a I can't quite make the positioning of everything work!

Great stuff Fez, thanks. Totally missed the theme as per. Favourites included 11a (struck a nerve), 13a, 25a (struck another nerve), 26a, 14d, 22d and 29d.
