I have finished the puzzle and highlighted 50 cells. Only one clue remains, May be a misprint somewhere in the clue or not. 34. Ed’s lifted Independent from Rayner, perhaps (5) LE?TE Thanks....
Nice theme and some excellent clues but the jumbled entries, combined with a serious amount of guess-and-search for the outer ring, made for far too much cold solving for my liking. If it had been...
Have finished this more or less and very fine it is too - except that I'm left with several ambiguous cells and no indication that I can see on how to resolve this. The subject of line 2 also eludes...
This is curious. All done, all seems OK ... and yet I am a letter out in the endgame. I'll assume that I have made a small error. Perversely, I hope that I have and that there isn't a problem here....
What a struggle this has been. There is so much going on in the grid that I thought the penny was never going to drop (but it just did with a clang when I read the preamble more carefully). Thank you...
I made heavy weather of this at first, and admired the way some of the misprints were quite deviously hidden. I was lucky in the end-game, spotting a likely anagram which turned out to be correct: I'm...
Sod's law dictated that the last couple of clues that resisted my attack included clashes, so I had to resort to reverse logic from a guess at the instruction to nail those. It took me a while to get...
Lovely puzzle by the Listener editors (Tiburon and Kea). Impressive to think these excerpts were published in the paper. I was thinking as I was solving it that I am still in need of a cryptic clue,...
Can't find an earlier post.
Quite a challenge from Wan with some tricky wordplays and misprints/extra letters. Highlighting not too difficult if you have an idea where to look.
Thanks to Wan...
Wow! After staring at the full grid for hours off and on, I finally saw one of the words...then another..and then I was done. Thanks, Elfman, for a first-rate Listener!
This has produced a giggle but it was a tough solve until the message appeared and we are going to have to be very careful with our checking of our final grid. What an amusing and original idea. Many...
Hello, I am trying to locate a song that was played quite a bit on 6Music this time last year. However I can only remember a small part of it, a North American female singer saying the word...
Hi Everyone, My wife has a laptop that she has run on mains power for a couple of years with the battery disconnected. Today we put the battery in and although the computer recognised the battery it...
