Listener 4836 Our Evenings By Kea

An interesting gimmick that was not quite as terrifying as it first appeared to be although we got hung up on 34a which with hindsight is a perfectly fair clue.

Listener 4827 - A Royal Tour Of 15 By Agricola

A nicely chewy puzzle, which was a good workout, for which thanks, Agricola. But a very well-worn theme. Are there not some unexplored cultural backwaters we could mine?

Listener 4742 Short Seats By Yorick

A top quality multi-layered puzzle, requiring a fair amount of lateral thinking to complete, but which thankfully ends unambiguously. Many thanks, Yorick - that was one of the best of the year.

Listener 4734 - Definition By Gnomish

We filled the grid eventually but decided that the alphabetical caper wasn't for us. We took a huge leap in the dark and guessed what should be submitted. Will our hubris be rewarded? Thanks, Gnomish...

Listener 4643 - Systematic By Dave

An excellent (and far from easy) puzzle - even after spotting the theme it was tricky to find the correct entries which needed adjustment. Some nice clues too - with very tricky parsing to be done to...
