DifficultyC
Grid 13×13 barred grid with 180° symmetry. There is a space to be completed under the grid.
Preamble Clue answers result in seven clashes in the grid. Solvers need to identify which of the two letters to enter in the grid (always forming real words) and must render each 'new' (ie unclued) word as suggested by the title, in order to create a thematic group. The seven discarded letters can be arranged to form a further thematic word; a surname associated with this final thematic word (as well as with one of the other seven thematic entries) must be similarly rendered (as a 4-letter word) in the space below the grid. One clued answer is an abbreviation.
