48d) Portray (6) DEd?CT. I thought depict, but I have insipid for 59a) Lacking taste, and the end letter of that creates a d in the third letter space of 48d). Could it be deduce?

or even deduct, instead of depict, forget deuce, as it ends in a T. :)
Everyone reckons the Crossword compiler has made a mistake, they all reckon it's INSIPID and DEPICT. I wonder if they'll declare the crossword void?
Hi both I e-mailed the magazine about this earlier today but so far no response. I know that in the past, where there's been an error, the crossword has been declared void.
If I get a reply I'll post it on AB.
well deduct would fit in letterwise, but from what has been in the post here today
it looks like there is a mistake, BUT have NOW checked on their solution line and
they are saying 48d deduct and 59a insipid. I know I know its cheating but it was
really really getting to me. (wasn't cheap either )
Question Author
Thank you, I know they do make the odd mistake!
I may put deduct as it at least fits.
I can only really see it being depict though.
Question Author
Ah, Thank You Tony, Deduct it shall be. ;o)
It will more than likely be declared Void,
JMR27 normally takes about 24hours for a reply but they DO reply

Well, if they do declare it void, I hope they up the prize money to £1000 next week.

I may even be forced to buy two Daily Records. ;o)
