Well that's the PDM revealed before you've even started. The whole fun in this particular crossword was gradually working out what it meant. After that, it just becomes a straightforward solve. Can't see the point myself.

I agree with Semwah - the whole point of a themed puzzle is to gradually work out the theme. Once you know the theme it becomes a very easy crossword except for the unthemed clues.
