Listener 4285: Now You See It By Mr E

A nice playful offering by Mr E. Nothing too difficult in the clues, but I found spotting the way the other four fitted took far longer than it should have. Luckily I spotted the final one fairly...

Listenener 4284 Syd Lexis Cruciverbal Creed

This is becoming rather sad - the third 'Goodbye crossword' in succession. What fine final words from Syd Lexis. Our thanks to him for years of enjoyment.

Listener 4282: Coordinated By Mr Lemon

Sad to see a farewell crossword from Mr Lemon: I had not picked up the fact that he had died. A nice puzzle to remember him by though, with lots of nice clues and a final step that had me chasing...

Listener 4281: Sporn By Hedgehog

A very straightforward numerical. I was surprised at how few candidates there were for some of the number patterns, giving very clear entry points to the puzzle. Thanks, Hedgehog, for not taking up as...

Listener Crossword No 4280 Face Off By Bero

Another rather gentle exercise with easier than normal clues (perhaps perforce) and a not too complex endgame, neatly tieing up all of the thematic material. Will be interesting to see how solvers...

Listener 4279 Hellside By External

Nice gentle cluing from eXternal - first Listener I think. This will be a good starter for new or newish solvers but shouldn't detain the regulars for too long. All definitions sorted, just a bit of...

Listener No 4278: Generalisation By Samuel

This was a very clever idea by Samuel. Despite getting the theme quite quickly and also deducing the quotation, it took me quite a while to solve all the clues and to construct the grid. But there was...

Listener Crossword No 4276 Fore And Aft By Poat

I thought this was a reasonably straightforward offering from Poat. Fairly obvious what was going on from an early stage but none the worse for that. Just a few wordpalys to resolve and then it's back...

Listener Crossword No 4275 Make A Connection By Ioa

Is there a tradition to start the year with an extra-easy puzzle? This one certainly fits the bill but nonetheless has some nice touches (and not too much gridstaring in the end) even if the clues...

Listener Crossword No 4274 -- Sonamb By Porlock

A very pleasant way to end the year. Grid is chock-full of thematic material, and despite the multiple gimmicks it wasn't too difficult to break into the clues, probably a few very generous ones to...

Thanks for a good challenge, Kea. It was a nice challenge to determine the answers that had extra letters and not easy to get the two items from the extra letters. I am a bit concerned about what I...

Listener 4271. Extreme Behaviour By Nudd
