Explanation for 5down please. They hold many records - even for Dickens adaptations (5,9). V?D?O?A?S?T?E?. The answer would seem to be 'video cassettes' but I don't see the relevance of the wordplay.

Possibly a mistake by the compiler. I notice when I entered my grid on line evryone has 2 answers wrong suggesting a booboo somewhere by the Times!
I agree with Roslyn. I originally thought it was an anagram of 'even for Dickens' - same number of letters but, given I've got the intersecting clues right, 'video cassettes' is the only thing that fits. There also appears to be a mistake with the Zola/Malraux(or Mauriac)/Therese clue - the TLS compiler is getting sloppy !
I agree. I submitted mine online unfinished therefore knowing I had one wrong but ended up scored 3 wrong - there have been a few errors recently in various crosswords.
Just checked stats and there are two all correct entries,perhaps they could provide info.
