You promised more and you definitely delivered! Hilarious (and clever) strap line, and a great crossword with good mix of devices and creative surfaces. Faves included 12a, 13a(this trick always gets me!), 1d, 2d, 6d, 15d, 19d, and 23d(2nd time this week! Check out Drumcraft 10a). For desserts…

Thanks Podger. A shot in the dark, I filled in the 'bonus ball' from the definition and its enumeration which helped enormously. I was only held up by 4d despite the NHO 25a and vaguely familiar 24d but a few resisted my lazy attempts to parse satisfactorily. Favourites are 27a, 9a, 2d, 5d, 23d. Off to look at annotations and Fez's spoilers.
