Ev 1246

Can anyone help please with the phrase to be written under the grid (supposedly deduced from the additional words from across clues)? Thanks for any help...

Ev 1237

Have solved a few clues but now stuck. Misprints can be difficult but this puzzle is more difficult because some answers are longer than the grid entry. Any hint on the three long ones (19, 25, 32)...

Listener 4389: Teeing Off By Nutmeg

A very satisfying puzzle this one, and thankfully easier to make inroads into than last week's. Everything fell into place quite quickly once I had enough answers to have a go at grid entry. I like...

Ev: Sunday Telegraph Enigmatic Variations 1138 -- Solvable Surely? By Ian And Steve

It took me a while to realise that this was going in a whole other direction from actual current EV setters! For a while in the middle, before making the breakthrough, my enthusiasm for the puzzle was...

Ev: Sunday Telegraph Enigmatic Variations 1132 -- Another Game By Artix

I think I would have found this impossible without managing to have a lucky guess about who players 1 and 2 are, followed by another lucky guess about where the various empty squares should be. Both...

Ev: Sunday Telegraph Enigmatic Variations 1127 - Nightmare By Eclogue

Two setters, if memory serves, which explains the preamble "have had"! I found this rather complicated by having heard neither of the unclued 6dn (at least, not in this context) nor of the fitting...

A Birthday -A-B-C(E-F) By Kevgar

I enjoyed that (I had a slight sense of deja vu over the theme, but if I'm right I hope nobody will give the details until after the closing date). I did it in rather an odd order. With about half the...

Ev 1111

A straightforward grid fill and an interesting endgame - no grid staring for once! Not sure about 1d but otherwise all done if I have understood it correctly!

Ev 1101 Prevention By Charybdis

In binary this is only EV 13! Could this be the most thematically packed puzzle ever? Or this week, anyway? Lots to keep track of, and I must say I sort of stopped paying attention to the extra...

Enigmatic Variations

Any hints on this please? I am really stuck and have only solved 10 clues. The clues are so weird e.g. 8 ac and 10 ac! I usually manage to solve EVs in a couple of days but this one really defeats me.
