8a argentine argentina? makes the last n wrong though

[Donald Duck]

I think the last n is right and I had thought of Argentina but where is the french currency?

[cc1]

isn't argent the french for money? sorry, thought the n was at the end, should have gone to spec savers!

[shaneystar2]

Eurobonds ? possibly a currency that can be held by any country

[shaneystar2]

No no ..take no notice of my silly answer... Argentina is correct .
Argent is French for money ...Gawd these RT clues get more convoluted by the week !!

[Donald Duck]

of course it is cc1. I need a brain surgeon. and I couldn'; agree more shaneystar. I have just put a last question on!

Maybe next week's RT crossword will have some Serbo-Croat word in it?

[mars06]

anyone ever won the radio times crossword??????

[tyrepill]

I was fortunate to win �50 worth of book tokens ,a few years ago,

[pomlazka]

I won a copy of the Collins English Dictionary (Millennium Edition) - about seven years ago.

[joeedwards]

I have won three hardback OUP books;
The Concise Oxford Dictionary in 1992.
The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Quotations and The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Proverbs in 1996.
I have continued to send in weekly solutions but never won again. Perhaps I have won my quota. I have thought it strange that I won when Radio Times was the biggest selling weekly magazine at the time (there was just the TV Times as competition) and now, when there is so much more competition and the sales of Radio Times are presumably correspondingly lower, it is so much harder to win.
