Another pleasant puzzle, with unambiguous clues and a pretty, if straightforward, end-game. Thanks to Little Hare, both for the puzzle and for sending me back to the source of the message....
I came to this one late this week but I've identified the 6 18 and all grid entries bar 26D ( I have MA???DS) and 36A (KI?O). Frustrating! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Well, this was somewhat easier than last week's Inquisitor. Only thing I'm struggling with is the álternative' title. I have a letter missing from the last word of the charity's name so I guess that...
Hi all Anyone tackling this ? What a ??? of a puzzle ! I have just over half the answers and have worked out that there must be two 13-letter solutions forming a central cross in the grid. I'm...
I've been off for a few weeks so this is first Inquisitor for a while so finding the end-game a bit of a struggle. I have the 36-letter observation and I think I know the 3-word phrase - something...
I've broken the back of this puzzle, all lights filled in and six examples found...but please can someone give me a steer to the place where a further example may be found by reversing two unchecked...
I 'thought' I'd got the right drama, but as I can't find any of the characters in the grid, I'm now begining to doubt my idea! Without giving too much away is the drama T by GDM ? If not can someone...
Where is everybody?? Having completed the last few Inquisitors quite quickly I logged on here to see if anyone needed help. Clearly everyone had done the same as there wasn't a single entry! However,...
I've got the central down unclued answer, but I'm completely lost as to the rest!! Please could someone help me with 1 down: God who destroys trees (4) _ I _ _ and 25 down: Mist over second opening to...
I have finished apart from 13 ac. Can't work out what the third letter is. The only word that seems to fit doesn't seem to answer the clue. Clue says: "Tolkien's ogre finally got away from old...
Hello everyone
I've just returned from holiday so missed buying Saturday's paper. Does anyone know where I can find a printable copy of this puzzle please?...
I'm struggling with the top half of this puzzle and am now thinking that it's because I've misled myself on 15A. The answer I have is COVER (C for caught plus Over for excessive, meaning CASE -...
I thought this weeks was quite difficult but a bit unsatisfactory because I got most of the thematic entries before working out the answers to the thematic clues. Can someone please explain why the...
I need to understand the wordplay of 32 down:
Parasite, one bleeding cattle endlessly (4) _LEA
I assume it's flea, but have no idea why!
Thanks in advance...
Some clever dick has printed the Inquisitor and the Cryptic back to back in the paper. Where can I get a copy of the grid and clues to The Inquisitors 1307 & 1308...
This will make sense only to those who've done, are doing, this puzzle. I have completed the grid and thought I had got the theme -but the 'work' I've got in mind does not have the required number of...
I'm falling at the last hurdle as usual! I have the phrase from the surplus letters, the four answers with their pairs, and I think I'm close to getting the alternative title - only mine has 18...
I've totally finished this enjoyable puzzle but, as usual, am unsure if I've made a mistake on the last little bit! I've found the 4 clues with the shared definition and my pairs of letters definitely...
