First solo Listener effort from The Don, the previous one being as part of Donarino in 2019. Not one of the hardest Listeners but enough in it with clashes and extra letters to find to keep you on...
A delight - not difficult, but all very neat and tidy - a great puzzle for anyone fancying a go at a Listener. Thanks Awinger - I really enjoyed that and now have a happy earworm for the weekend too....
Post Mortem listener 4691 39ac why does old Charlie = sot? 28dn why does Henry iv duke = neaffe? At the time I grumbled that solving this puzzle required specialist knowledge ie musical notation. I...
This left me with a smile on my face when I finished. I remember Ares’ last puzzle (4633) involved a trivial grid fill followed by an interminable grid stare, and I feared the same with this one after...
I remember when just about every other Listener Crossword used to be like this. Tough clues, tough theme and tough endgame. I thoroughly enjoyed it, thanks Banjaluka!...
Simple, even compared to a few we've had recently - but an excellent entry-level challenge for anyone who fancies a shot at The Listener. The theme has been visited many times, but is nicely...
A jigsaw grid with entries of uncertain length, and no long answers to help us get started. Is that not one obstacle too many? I certainly thought so after I'd solved all but four of the clues and not...
A well judged puzzle for this weekend, I thought. Hard enough to satisfy the regulars (with plenty of thematics too) but accessible enough for anyone who fancies a go at something new over the...
Can someone please tell me how to submit a Listener solution online? I can't get to the shop for a paper copy of the Times and can't find instructions for online use anywhere. Perhaps you might email...
I can't find a thread yet although that is not unusual for Answerbank. A well constructed crossword at the easier end of the Listener range. The problem is that the misprints tend to stand out like a...
We have no idea about what the quotation is but that didn't stand in the way of completing the grid.
Perhaps too many easy clues for a Listener.
Thanks, tnap....
A brisk romp through some neat (but not too taxing) clues and then a mercifully brief grid stare - another entry-level Listener, but a very pleasant one. Thanks Paddock - plenty of time now for the...
Thanks to Miles, another setter new to the Listener? The grid-fill was mostly straightforward, but there were some clever and imaginative clues. I have the theme, though I still haven't quite...
A fine final Listener from one of the master setters. He will be missed. Perhaps not his most difficult, but I should have realised the theme more quickly. Some well concealed misprints meant I did...
Really? If I can finish this within an hour, with little reference to the BRB, it is not top rate Listener. I appreciate the effort that goes into the construction, and that is pretty enough. But the...
First time I've managed to get to grips with a Listener crossword. Having problem with last two answers 9a Old Vatican Coins stop in ancient Buddhist language (5) ?A?LI Assuming answer may be Pauli...
