[Prudentia]

Have I got a duff edition or is there something amiss with todays crossword, lake on border of kazakstan, 4,3 - but only six spaces. Scottish author, 7 letters, but again only six spaces, aral sea does not fit nor does kenneth grahame????

Dont get the paper but someone on Quizzes is asking the same.

There is a correct version of the grid here, I believe:

It's BigDave that deserves the stars for putting up that page.

This is the version you get online from the Telegraph.

Which, I think, you cannot get to unless you subscribe to the Telegraph crossword site.

Two black squares should be open (allowing Aral Sea and Grahame to be written in)

I, too have a "duff" edition so can't fit the answers in the spaces. Most annoying.
