Is it correct that there is no prize crossword in today's(saturday) crossword?

[hammersgirl]

The usual cryptic with a dictionary as a prize. Main paper again.

[Murielmci]

Has anyone found the prize cryptic online?

[SpiderPig]

It doesn't say it's a prize crossword - But there is a crossword for Saturday 29 December compiled by Paul.

Perhaps someone with the paper can confirm that it's the same crossword - The first Across clue is

8a Old man's port - a US city (8)

[maimai]

Just got the paper - as hammersgirl says above - it's in the main section. Doesn't say prize but has the Collins book and entry from by first post on Friday. Yes the 8a as listed above is the first one. just about to try to start it. maimai

Yes it is the same crossword and you can cheat! Not sure what they will do about that as we can now buy a paper and cheat! - if ever we would!

Care cheating for the answers to these "kcul" and "ylper" type clues? I'm just not getting them...

[bathtub]

Change into reverse gear and all will become clear... this isn't a hard crossword once you've done that.

[Murielmci]

I have done it without the need to "cheat" - do you still need any answers?
