4d,6d
23d Didn’t know the composer
26a I was not aware that an iris is a flag -part of the eye or flower but not a flag.
For 20a while I got it right I still don’t see why nips =steals.
I stole a loaf of bread but I didn’t nip it.

Re your comment at 10a. I would expect ‘re-examine’ to be hyphenated. When the letter after re- is again an ‘e’, the hyphen becomes necessary, in my opinion. I don’t go with the thinking that giving the enu as (2-7) would be a dead giveaway.
