Has anyone done this? I'm beginning to think the grid is wrong, as some answers I'm fairly sure of don't fit. I hope someone can confirm my thoughts, so I can give up! Thanks.
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,...
Hello I've filled in the grid and got the 'explanation' from the extra letters in the down clues. I've got various sets of 'spare' letters in the across clues, which make no sense to me. Now I'm...
nice to have this while the numbers are being crunched, found it enjoyable but is there another possibility for the word under the grid? my highlighted thematic [which i'm not entirely happy with -...
A very pleasant and enjoyable debut by Kevin. Some nice clues and a familiar theme which made me realise how quickly time passes. Possibly suitable for newcomers, but personally, I think that 32D is a...
We have found the clues a step up in difficulty from previous ones and had to go to the Internet for the quotation. Certainly not a puzzle for newcomers this week!
I think we have turned a corner in terms of difficulty. Another outstanding grid construction. The lack of unches made the task easier once the quotation was got, but the way it all tied in together...
I am glad there was no dilemmas here (which was the case for me in "A New Year Message" 2008). As with all of the year's listeners so far, the grid was fairly easy easy to fill, but the...
Oh boy, just seen where this one is going. Very nearly finished, but I reckon there's going to be a fair bit of drawing to do, which can wait until tomorrow! Enjoyable diversion, without being too...
Where is everybody? Or are you finding the wordplay as difficult as I did. This was a nice, easy grid fill and the alternatives and associatives were fun, but oh dear, did I struggle with the endgame!...
With the thought that I failed on Poat's last 2 listeners, I knew we would be in for some tough clues. Excellent construction, clues (although i havent worked the wordplay out on a couple yet) and a...
I know I am early and I haven't had a look at it yet (have yesterday's to do first as was out judging until mid pm) but am answering DocHH from last week! Doc, didn't go to Kensington so could hardly...
I wonder how people are getting on with this one. I found that all but one of the "normal" clues fell in fairly quickly, but now I'm staring at an almost-full grid with no idea how to progress. Any...
This week's puzzle is by Raich, who last brought us "Men In Her Life", a George Eliot-themed puzzle two years ago . Nothing too taxing or out of the ordinary here, though the finish might generate a...
Have solved all clues and understand how the down clues are to be entered thematically - but don't yet see how 40 across is completed or the alternative titles. Any hints or suggestions gratefully...
