Guardian Prize - Last Two
7 Answers
This is a thematic crossword. Special instructions as follows
Thirty solutions are of a kind, not further defined. The clues for the remaining 36 solutions include a word of the same kind. The initial letters of these words form part of the wordplay for that clue
58a Because of this, shock treatment is held inside (8) _ E _ T _ N _ E
The definition is unclued and should be the name/pseudonym of a crossword compiler.
22a The heart of Schwyz, say (4) A _ T _
I wondered about (C)Anto(N). This would be fine if "anto" was a crossword compiler, but I think it is more likely to be the second type and the "S" for Schwyz must be used in the wordplay.
Many thanks
