Thanks Pentman! Some fun ones here! 11d very tricky but a fun device. A funny moment for me was 12a. I thought I had "NHO" but when I googled the word to check it... the wikipedia link was purple!!! I had been there before! Devices like 26a and 11d bump this up a notch in difficulty, as do some of the more obscure theme answers (several were NHO for me). But there was plenty of fun wordplay and cluing in amongst the difficulty, especially 22d 7a 15d and the very neat 27a! Thanks again!

Thanks Pentman, a good puzzle on a now familiar theme - will you go for the hat-trick?! Particularly liked 26a, which reminded me of being dragged round Blantyre as a kid (the Lanarkshire one, not the Malawi one!) Other likes include 7a, 10a, 14a, 27a, 1d, 19d. Struggled slightly with the wordplay in 18d ie what's inside what but solution is easy enough to get to. Four hidden words might be a bit too many?

He’s back- with a D 🥳 The end of all our exploring…or maybe not yet? Anyway, well done Pentman for taking us on all these voyages. I especially enjoyed 10a, 12a, 25a, 26a, 4d and 19d, with a smile for 18d of course. Cheers!
