Having come to this puzzle late this week, I've nearly completed the grid but I think I've mislead myself on 28D & 29D. I know what the extra letters should be but my answer for 28 is now clearly...
I've just started tackling a fiendish looking grid! It's too complicated to explain, so I was hoping for a little bit of help as I've ground to a halt. 43 A. Plant's fruit sliced by kind woman (8)...
Can anyone help me with 12across: Grain needing a stone implement (6) Also 28across A goddess encountered in Germany at any time (7) I 'think' I've got an answer for 12 across - but can't work out the...
Really enjoyable & satisfying crossword - but I've no idea about the "highlight a cryptic seven-letter represation"
Any ideas would be appreciated
Thanks in advance...
This will make sense only to anyone who has a copy of this puzzle in front of them! I've finished the grid, as the preamble instructs - but I'm not sure if I'm correct having 13 A as one of the eight...
Last two to complete this - for fun only, as I have no chance of working out the thematic answer. 17 D. African country made famous by Bronowski?(3) NA? (I want put 'Nat' but don't know why) 24 D....
Have solved all clues and completed the grid but cannot see the 23 squares to highlight. Also, the contiguous blocks of letters yielded from all clues is baffling me, so I cannot identify the...
Another nice Inquisitor crossword with a satisfying conclusion. Why isn't this crossword treated with the reverence (apparently) reserved for the Listener? (which it quite often rivals). Too often...
I've got lots of the "straightforward" answers and some of the misprints but am struggling with some of the odd entry lengths as this wasn't mentioned in the preamble. Any tips would be...
I've solved most of this puzzle, including 6D, but have a mismatch of seemingly sensible answers for 7D, 10D and 12A. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
I finished the grid on Sunday; have the 'poser' (6 words), 'invention' and Guru's identity, but still have no idea of what the (4,3,5) answer is? Can anyone please give me a (not too blatant) nudge in...
I have most of the clued answers and a half formed idea of what 27A could be - but am struggling to find a link between the unclued words - or even if some of them are words at all!! I'm obviously...
Just 'slightly' stuck ontwo, I'm pretty sure I know the answers, but don't know why! 12across: Fool is (hiding) behind American (3) A _ S 27 across: An excrescent in over 75% of luxuriant plants (6)...
Well, as per usual I've got the grid filled in, but.............. appart from parliament & onion I'm not sure of any of the other unclued entries. Can anyone nudge me in the right direction,...
I've solved most of this puzzle apart from the extreme bottom right hand corner. I also can't find enough misprints so am hoping that's where they're hiding! Any tips greatly appreciated!!
