You are correct. Whilst solving, after seeing WAN in the answer I misread ‘week’ as ‘weak’ (that’s what comes of using ‘toner save’ when printing the puzzle, the text is rather wan).

I found this one pretty easy – I had the first six across answers within a minute – but enjoyable nonetheless.

I’m with Eileen on 17d.

18a was my COD; the double ‘low’ in 26a was a bit disappointing.

17dn: ‘wan = week’?? Isn’t it W[eek] AN?

I opted for STRESS in 20d although I failed to make the connection with Shakespeare’s mistress. I wonder: did Anne Hathaway ever find out about her?
