That was really fun. Particularly liked 11a, 15a, 22a (though it was a NHO), "reversing polarity" in 30a (I wonder if there's a Jon Pertwee Doctor Who clue with that indicator), 1d, 2d, 5d, 6d. Liked the def of 18a but didn't twig the wordplay. Also failed to work out what was going on with the "triple definition". Clue of the day's a dead heat between 6d and 28d.
Lovely stuff as usual PM, thanks for a most pleasurable puzzle. Packed full of &lits, L&Ss and customarily satisfying constructions, hard to pick faves but I have to give honourable mentions to 11a (very neat), 15a (lovely), 18a (cute), 22a (lovely), 27a (very neat), 31a (nice), 1d (COTD, delightful), 6d (good fun), 7d (very neat), 14d (nice), 24d (cute) and 28d (simple, effective and fun)
