Thanks, johnpiper, NACW, I guessed the Unclueds quite early in the game, then the hints from jj109 confirmed my answers. A nice offering from Doc rhis week and enjoyable, too!

Thanks, Matakari. Glad to hear you didn't have too many problems with too many clues, glad you spotted the theme 'quite early'. I was surprised you needed help with the last two of the Unclued entries! 

a million thanks jj and nac for all your help with the cipher in Genius, now I'm only struggling with a sticky patch in the southeast - I think my downs are syntax a jazzer and a homily, but I never understood the miles kane thing so I don't know what to alter for 20 across, and I can't see the misprints in 8 and 19 down though I think my answers are right

Thanks, Quinol.  20 Across is Marry, get together. The M s the abbreviation for Miles and Harry (Kane, the footballer) loses his H, husband.
