The clue-solving was tough work in places and I spent an age somewhat baffled ... but a nice couple of PDMs brought it all to an enjoyable conclusion. Thanks tnap :-)

A clever treatment of, for me, an unfamiliar theme. It's scarcely possible to believe that the letter changes in the grid can exist and give the required text. I really liked several of the across...

I came to have a look to see what others thought of this one, but it looks like I'm the first - which must also be a first. The grid fill for Grid A was a bit of a slog, but I thought there was a nice...

Am I truly first? Loved this one, and have just finally nailed my last replacement. Quick, but very clever.

Hmm... I have the values of all but five variables but now find one of them has to be 100. Does anyone know if there are any misprints as all the other values 'hang together'. Nothing on The Listener...

I made heavy weather of this at first, and admired the way some of the misprints were quite deviously hidden. I was lucky in the end-game, spotting a likely anagram which turned out to be correct: I'm...

Whew!! Actually, the first Playfair was not too bad, as a code phrase that long tends to lead to a bunch of letters left over that, as long as one or two of them appear in the hints, help a lot. I...

Thanks Oyler for an enjoyable workout. Pretty clear which rows and columns are intended, but I can't help feeling that I'm missing something....

Thanks, Flying Tortoise (glad you weren't used in the experiment -- if it really took place). Nice to have a hands-on puzzle again. A fairly straightforward set of clues, and very clear instructions....

Six answers entered after six hours of solving - anyone else doing better?

A lovely construction, with fairly straightforward clues. I hadn't come across the verse, and have only been able to locate the vital couplet -- if the rest of it is available I hope somebody will...
