Question Author

Sorry, but that's the answer to 5 down.

nicat

pioneer

Senior moment, sorry Pioneer is correct for 5.across .Prayer mat is correct for the clue given

But it seems you gave the clue for 5d .
What's the clue for 5a then please?

Pentire

Question Author

That's the only word I could think of, too; but why?

I'd need to know what the correct clue is

Pioneer=Colonist and also a space probe to Jupiter

nicat

p one ier The clue is colonist, one taking part in landing (7)

Thanks. I don't think Pentire has realised he gave the wrong clue and that's why he initially got the wrong answer

nicat

sorry that should read pi one er (one inside a pier)

But how does 'pioneer' fit with the clue? I've been struggling with this for the last couple of hours, could it be a misprint?

Pentire

Question Author

Not being deliberately obtuse, but still cannot get why "pioneer" is the answer to clue "collect dull rug". Help!

nicat

5d Collect is a prayer and mat is dull which together make a rug

It isn't the answer to collect dull rug is prayer mat(prayer is a collect mat is dull)

Prayer mat is the answer to "Collect dull rug"
Pioneer is the answer to "colonist, one taking part in landing (7)"

The clue in the DT paper edition is as described by Pentire not as described by Nicat. An obvious misprint, tut tut DT Crossword editor.

Pentire

Question Author

Factor 30 : correct clue was given. Trying to establish why "pioneer" is the answer. Seems I'm not the only one.

So in the paper edition what was the clue to 5d and to 5a. Was it the same clue?

Correct clue was given but not correct clue number which has caused the confusion.Clue given refers to 5 down.
