Listener 4320: Shrive By Llig

What my old maths master would have described as "one for the rabbits", but enjoyable nevertheless. Thanks, Llig....

Listener 4318: Wordplay By Schadenfreude

Surely not two weeks in a row! Not the hardest Schadenfreude there's ever been, but a nice puzzle and a splendid PDM. Thanks, big S.

Listener 4317 Only Connect Two By The Tall'n

What a clever idea, and so much going on. Thanks, Tall'n. (I've never been first before: I hope I've not jumped the gun.(

Listener 4316: Delightful Punishment By Mynot

I've searched using several keywords but can't find another thread so ... This was a rewarding puzzle: once the penny drops you think, "yes, of course; why didn't I spot that earlier?" Many thanks...

Listener No 4315 Homer By Dysart

Very enjoyable, thanks, Dysart. I am just getting the scissors out to mutilate my grid (not as fiddly and worrying as I initially feared it might be!) Finding those ten letters missing from wordplay...

Listener No 4314 Renewable Energy By 'eck

What a brilliant use of the circular grid. This has been a remarkable piece of compiling and an extremely difficult puzzle which became easier as we progressed (suddenly dramatically so!)....

Listener 4313: Weak Force By Tut

Quite a straightforward offering from Tut, with an easy endgame. Fun, though, and a subject I am fond of....

Listener 4312: Elementary Deduction By Rood

After a day when my mind has been destroyed by builders, a pick through a water pipe, and trying to find a plumber at 4pm on a Friday, I little thought I'd be the first to check in. A very fair and...

Listener 4311 - Carte Blanche By Chalicea

This is an excellent example of a carte blanche puzzle; thanks Chalicea! However, I think there are eight thematic clues, not seven......

Listener 4310: Net Book Agreement By Charybdis

Oh dear ... another puzzle with straightforward clues. The endgame was more interesting, however. We must have a stinker coming up....

Listener 4309: Shades Of Green By Gos

Thanks to Gos for featuring one of my favourites. I did think, though, that many of the clues were Times Cryptic (or even the easy cryptic) standard rather than Listener. It must have been hard to get...

Listener 4305: Not A Blocked Grid By Lavatch

Another excellent construction. The top right corner held me up for a while, but once the penny dropped I could sit back and admire Lavatch's skill -- many thanks....

Listener 4303: Qvwke Vbcfa By Nutmeg

Good fun, with sufficiently straightforward clues to render it not too challenging. I think 'across the grid' must be interpreted as 'all the way across the grid' to resolve ambiguities in entering...

Listener 4302: When All Else Fails By Ottorino

Well, I paid my subscription in the end, and a puzzle like this makes it worth while. Mind you, I don't know how anybody could complete it without an early PDM allowing almost 3/4 of the grid to be...

Listener Crossword No 4301 It's Over Here! By Jago

Have just taken up my £1 special offer for first month of my Times subscription, and do hope I shall get better value for money in the coming weeks. I regret to say that this is just not up to...

Listener 4300: 22 Across By Calmac

I suppose it had to come -- I mean both the theme and an easy one after a few gems. I am sure there could have been something more exciting by way of an end-game, but thanks anyway, Calmac....

Listener 4296: Playgroup By Ifor

One of those frustrating ones where the last four clues took as long to sort out as the rest of the clues and the theme altogether. Apart from those four, it was all pretty clear, so thanks Ifor. I...

Listener 4293 : Shrub By Aedites

Hurrah - a relatively easy solve after last week's more difficult offering, so no interruption to tomorrow's Eurovision! I rather liked the final PDM. Thanks Aedites.

This seemed very daunting at first with so much going on but turned into a happy romp once the device became clear, and especially when the quotation emerged. Thank you MynoT
