Listener No 4645 Fire Alarms By Chen

I am not sure it that was an easy grid fill or if I am just on the setter’s wavelength! Very enjoyable solve in any case, with some wonderful misleading wordplay. I don’t recognise the setter’s name,...

Listener 4644 Symbols By Aedites

A jigsaw grid with entries of uncertain length, and no long answers to help us get started. Is that not one obstacle too many? I certainly thought so after I'd solved all but four of the clues and not...

Listener 4642 Music Box By Tnap

I have searched extensively, but that doesn't mean there isn't a previous thread lurking that search can't find. I'll just say that I found this hard work, and add more if this really is the first...

Listener 4639 - Hotfoot By Vismut

A well judged puzzle for this weekend, I thought. Hard enough to satisfy the regulars (with plenty of thematics too) but accessible enough for anyone who fancies a go at something new over the...

Listener 4637 - Realisation

Excellent puzzle - not the hardest, but some nice clues and (for once) a very fair endgame with no gridstaring. Thanks KevGar - I look forward to your puzzles and this was a good one....

Listener 4633 - Cool Places Only By Ares

(Am I first? I can't find another thread) A very straightforward grid fill, with the "gimmick" obvious after the first couple of clues. And then a fairly obvious "theme" to look for. But then...a...

Listener 4631 Seconds Out By Stick Insect

A rare occasion where we can say have solved the puzzle but not the normal clues at this moment.

Listener 4629 Right-Wing Majority By Ifor

Blimey I'm old - the last thematic item didn't exist when I taught the general subject! Really enjoyed this as I do all Ifor's puzzles - it was hard but yielded to perseverance at just the right pace....

Listener 4627 Flappy By Shark

I thought this was terrific, with thematic material that just kept on giving. My drawing abilities are even worse than that of a certain artist who exhibits unmade beds, but even so my final result is...

Listener 4623 Tears By Oxymoron

Rather surprised to find an Oxymoron puzzle in the Listener. Wasn't that the pseudonym the late, great John Harrington used for Enigmatic Variations, while his Listener and Inquisitor puzzles were set...

Excellent (if somewhat simple) puzzle - great fun around a couple of subjects which are personal favourites of mine. Thanks Brock...

Listener 4618: You Don't Say By Stick Insect

I found this very easy, but very enjoyable too - confirmation that a puzzle can be both things. The only downside is that I have no excuse not to go back and try to finish last week’s. Thanks very...

Listener 4617 Selfie By Sabre

A magnificent challenge from Sabre, incredibly tough clues (some distinctly devious) and a great endgame. One of the best in a long time. Thank you Sabre.

Listener 4616 Disco Lovers By The Ace Of Hearts

The perimeter entries were a great help once the link between them became clear. The ungenerous checking is a serious obstacle when you've got letters latent, uncertain entry points and some very...

Listener No 4615 Ancient Mariner By Tringa

A clever idea with plenty of thematic material in the grid (once you knew what the theme was.) Some easy clues got me started but then things slowed a bit with one or two fairly obscure definitions...

Listener 4614 - From Here To There By Shenanigans

Another odd one here. There were some terrific clues, and enough entries to get in quickly. The moving words were nicely done, and none too obvious. I really enjoyed the solve, and a nice PDM as to...

I can't find a thread but no doubt AB search will embarrass me again... This was FUN! I loved the riddles and the way their answers led through the rooms and ultimately to freedom. Excellent clues...

Listener 4612 - Family Man By Duck

A bit of a puzzle, this one. I would not say it was over simple, but I finished it by 10 yesterday. I think that it had a momentum, that as the clues were solved, there was the chocolate addict's...
