[Note: Ignoring asterisks, the puzzle may be solved as a normal cryptic crossword.]
When the grid is filled, solvers may – as an optional stage 2 – make the asterisked number of changes to unchecked letters in the answers to marked clues, to produce segments of the puzzle’s theme (in which 24 is, sadly, fruitless). Despite its relevant characteristics, 15 is not one of them, as three further such changes to one unasterisked answer will reveal.
