Listener 4352 What’S Missing? By Artix
43 Answers
Excellent puzzle. Totally misinterpreted the first missing item I found, then spent about three hours looking for eight more similar items, before realising I had led myself well up the garden path. I'm familiar with the theme, but I didn't know about the three unclued entries, which took a bit more searching out just to confirm. Great fun, thanks Artix.

Ugly uncle - I cannot see any double unches!

Well, that would be four of us.
I think my inexperience with these puzzles is telling on this one. I've cold-solved most of the clues now but am still none the wiser regarding how to fill the grid. I keep re-reading the instructions, sure there must be a hint in there somewhere, but no joy so far. I'm getting to the point where I may have to abandon ship and settle for a learning experience when the solution comes out.

You know what - as soon as I'd posted my remarks I realised that the preamble made double unches much less likely. But that doesn't mean I've got anywhere. Experimental jottings of possible intersections have left me none the wiser.
It looks like seven solvers and five strugglers now. Not the usual Saturday evening ratio at all.

It took me ages to see what was going on, and I too got the wrong theme in mind when the first example appeared. The next one put me on the right track, and I was happy to see that the entries I had pencilled in so far were in the correct places. I found some of the clues very tough, and there were a couple I only solved by working backwards from guesses at the examples. Many thanks. Artix.
