Listener 4688 Harry East By Lath

What an amazing construction! Not a particularly hard puzzle, though no walk in the park either, with PDMs galore. I am a total incompetent with the theme, though even I knew enough not to have to...

Listener No 4626 : Pot Plant By Karla

The clues were a little too simple but the end game added a bit of a challenge. Thanks, Karla....

Listener 4501 - Two Solutions By Quinapalus

After being too tired to make much progress on this last night, I made the most of a delayed flight this morning and got there in the end (in both senses!). This was a clever construction, with mostly...

Listener 4493

About two thirds done. Don’t recall a PD puzzle for some time. Trite to say it, given that solving some clues always helps with solving the rest, but one does seem to get into some sort of rhythm...

Listener Crossword 4475 Follow The Directions By Artix

A very clever construction form Artix. Grid fill not too difficult, but making sense of the scissor work took a little bit of thought. Other than being aware of the title, I was not familiar with the...

Saturday Times The Listener 4473 - Hit And Run By Ifor Friday October 20Th 2017

Surprised again not to find anyone else here already. This was quite fiddly, and I still haven’t parsed all of the clues for the extra letters. I *think* I understand the second instruction, but...

Listener No 4471 What Can The Matter Be? By Flying Tortoise

With quite a bit of surprise and head scratching, we have a full grid. It took a lucky early spotting of the theme to speed our solve up enormously. I thought this was quite challenging. Thank you,...

Listener 4470 (Rod And Bill)

I couldn't see an earlier thread .. but I'm guessing that there must be one. A curious puzzle. Some very easy clues, but coupled with a bit of trickery. It was enjoyable, but some debate will ensue...

Listener No 4465 Pqrst? By Yorick

What a struggle this has been. There is so much going on in the grid that I thought the penny was never going to drop (but it just did with a clang when I read the preamble more carefully). Thank you...

Listener No 4436 Clean-Up Operation By Aragon

We've spent almost as long grid staring as grid-filling and breathed a massive sigh of relief when the penny (or something) finally dropped. This has been by far the toughest so far this year. Thanks...

Listener No 4417: Hms Arcady By Hedge-Sparrow

A lucky identification after half a dozen letters of the poet and I was off to a good start as I learned the poem at school, and these things never leave you! As Hedge-sparrow has crammed such a mass...

Listener No 4414: Quads Ii By Shark

I really enjoyed this one. I was held up a bit in the north-east corner at stage one, got my coloured pens out to keep track of what had to be preserved at stage two, had a chuckle at the elegance of...

Listener No. 4403: No Offence By Artix

That was quite a workout! Unlike several recent Listeners where an early guess at the theme helped a lot with the gridfill, this time I could not tackle the endgame until I had worked my way through...

Listener No. 4401: Literal Spling By Waterloo

That was fun -- quite a quick solve, but I liked the idea. The one slight niggle I have is that the literal spling has not been 100% carried out -- unless I've made mistakes in at least two entries....

Listener No 4392: A Conversation By Kevgar

Nice straightforward clues, and a theme that never fails to raise a smile. Familiarity with the theme, guessed early, made is possible to see where some clashes were going to be before both...

Listener 4373 Semirp By Kea

Apologies if there is another thread. Nothing for the "numberphobes" to be scared of. Logical with only a bit of Excel at the start and some spadework at the end. Enjoyable - thanks Kea....

Listener Crossword No 4371 -- Our Announcer By Ploy
