While this one is currently topical, perhaps Kayakamina & others who have done it could enlighten me on 12D (?O?HE?) without spoiling it for the rest. I've looked at all the other titles involved and am missing a connection. many tks and rgds.

I'm in the same position I've finished the rest but am stuck on this one.

- It looks like MOTHER to me - which is in 1d25d - but not a track of it's own.

Let's hope there's some big guns about to enlighten us.
I assumed it was a mistake and they've missed the clue off.
That makes sense - there's definitely no song which fits the clue.
Ditto .....
If there is a clue omitted by mistake for 12d the Chambers has 43 words that would fit in the grid there.


I have spoken to Tom Johnson (Doc) who tells me that both he
and his checker hold up their hands and apologise for the
foul-up.

12d Should have read 'Junior Employee suggesting wood (6)

So GOPHER seems to be what is required for the grid.
Aha!

Thanks for the explanation.
Cheers K, thanks for checking for us all !
Many thanks all, especially kayakamina.

Many tks to K for his initiative - didn't realise this would generate so much interest and glad to find I wasn't the only one bemused by this.
