Hi, I've mostly finished this, but I'm stuck with 3 - I can't work out the wordplay so have no idea if I'm right or not.

21a - Shocks the distressed may choose ? (7) TO?PEE?

The only answer I can reasonably think of is toupees, but why ?

14d - It's clever to include marketing situation with dispatch (7) SMA???Y

(included only the letters I am ABSOLUTELY sure of, prob. though SMAR?Y). smartly ?

45d 'Goad' for 'God' (4) ?ROD

I have brod (meaning goad), but I don't get it.

Any help/advice much appreciated. Thanks.
