22a Divides into bits and pieces 5 letters I have parts however clue 25a is like these.................I had traits but the s doesn't fit 17 d. which is just D with a curve to letter d which I thought might be debriefed ?
27a was the infantry or cvalry for those ancient Greek horsemen joining up? 8 C?N?A?R?
4/20 Four and twenty blackbirds baked in apie? a strange suggestion 1,3,4 ?M?D ?D?A
Very difficult this week

The last one looks like A MAD IDEA. I'll see if I can parse it. I wonder if it referencing its clue number?

27 centaurs? horse/men joined up, but I don't see the infantry bit.

That fits thanks ChrisE

What is the exact clue for 17d, and what letters are you certain of?

Again that looks good ChrisE
its very unusual this week as a lot of the clue don't relate to
the answers
I have another one just noticed not sure of 29a God endlessly doing the rounds 4 O?I?

17d is just the letter D and a curved line ending with d
I had debriefed but then 25a is wrong I have traits the s doesnt fit into 17d
the clue for 25a is a follow up to clue 22a which is divides into bits and pieces I have parts and 25 clue is like these...............
Very puzzling

sorry chrisE the letters I have for 17 are ?E?R?S?E?

Long shot, if the S is wrong - decrypted?

Thanks ChrisE that looks good as well but I'm stuck on 25a
clue like these........letters I have for it are ?R?I?? as I said it seems like a follow on from 22 a which is parts hence I put traits but the S doesn't fit decrypted either.
