Just e mailed MM regarding repeated errors and suggested the culprit be exiled to the Sun or Daily Star with immediate effect. I have no doubt the buck will be passed from pillar to post without ever knowing where the responsibility lies.

Hi Jacqui,
I'm afraid that it has to be cancelled in order to be fair to all readers. I know that most regular solvers can make the links anyway, but we'd get even more complaints if the prize was awarded on the basis of a guess.
Truly sorry about the error.
Kindest regards,
