Another neat puzzle by the master.

Not as difficult as some of his previous offerings but still enjoyable.

RIP Schadenfreude.

Excellent puzzle and a poignant reminder that one of the greatest setters of advanced crosswords is no longer with us. Requiescat in pace, John Harrington.

Scorpius

A very neat puzzle with many of the setter's hallmark traits. The gimmick to provide the second name is a new one for me and makes a welcome change from initial letters from extra words.

It was a surprisingly quick solve. I don't recall a puzzle by Schadenfreude as easy as this.

He will be sorely missed. He produce some really memorable Listeners over the years.

Couldn't agree more Emcee, no need for trepidation with this one but a delightful construction nonetheless & some lovely clues (29dn made me chuckle). So sad that Schadenfreude is no longer with us.

Rest In Peace.

An elegant puzzle and not at all easy but clarified by the denouement.

Farewell Schadenfreude.

I struggled more than most with the gridfill. But a very elegant finish. RIP Schadenfreude.

Rest in peace, Schadenfreude. You're one of my favorites.

Given that the puzzle is by Schadenfreude, I was surprised to be able to work out the entire theme when I had only a quarter to a third of the clues solved.

Then I was surprised again to discover that knowing what the two names from the clues were, what the two titles in the grid were, and how they were going to be relocated was of relatively little help in filling the rest of the grid.

I came to this this afternoon, after a seven hour journey from Paris (wrestling with the Douane work to rule en route). Seeing it was a Schadenfreude, I was not anticipating I would have it finished by now. But everything was there - clever cluing, twists and obscurity. A good way to spend an afternoon of travel lag.
Thanks, great setter!
