Many thanks Lie-in King. Your brilliance never ceases to amaze me. I was looking for a place to insert "Girls" because of the theme but was thwarted by having a wrong letter. Grrr...

Happy to help :-)

As an afterthought, beware the iPad edition of the Guardian crossword. A careless tap will change a word order - vigilance required!

Lie-in King

Thanks, but what's an iPad? ;-)

Also, on rereading 25d, I guess the "abbreviated text" could also be 'm(anu)s(cript)', though that feels a bit off to me...
