EV 963 Broken up by Piccadilly

Hello to all the EV N&C Wine Clubbers, I thought I would be in for a tough time this week. I don't like the jigsaw type of barred crosswords. I went through the clues and to my surprise solved...

EV 961, Whither Goest Thou? by Charybdis

Back on the toughie track this week, for me anyway. I spent quite a bit of time convincing myself on several of the wordplays - I knew what the extra letter had to be but couldn't see where it was...

EV 960 - Scandal in Bohemia

The run of difficult EV's came to an end with this offering from Salamanca. One of the quickest grid-fills I can recall, though probably helped by the theme being one of my favourite works. Enjoy your...

Hello EV N&C Wine Clubbers, This took me longer than normal. How the 7 cells from 14 clashing answers were to be treated hit me with a glimmer rather than a blinding flash. How elegant that the...

EV 957 Products by Samuel

What a fun puzzle. The final step of turning the interim product into the final product made me laugh. Lots of thematic material and some well concealed misprints - bravo and huzzah!
