That's likely but, since the OP has given this thread a title of "It's Really Bugging Me!" rather than something useful like the publication and number of the crossword, it's very difficult to check...

The publication and number of the Xword is irrelevant. Calibax has got it in one assuming the the OP has inadvertently reduplicated the definite article.
Thank you and I am sorry for omitting the details but I had not realised
that you clever people actually have many publications. I promise to
try harder in future.
cantatrice, we don't have "many publications" - most of us don't have any of the papers or magazines in front of us - but knowing which paper it's in sometimes helps to define the style of the crossword.
