Got very few on my first read-through, but the clear clueing meant that with perseverance I filled the grid in the end. Nice to see a couple of science-based clues, and I liked 27ac as well.

Maybe just to point out for lurkers that VAN in IVAN is short for vanguard, ie leading position. I didn’t know that, but as keeps being pointed out, it’s in Collins …

Good start to the long weekend, thank you Phi, and nms for the blog.
