What is the most challenging crossword?

Which national media circulation crossword do Answer Bank members think is the most challenging? My nomination would be Saga Prize crossword. Incidently, I have been doing prize crosswords (correctly) for over 45 years and must have spent the equivalent of over �1000 of today's money in stamps and envelopes and have never won anything. Wish I had taken up stamp collecting instead.

I'm really struggling with the Oldie Magazine Genius Crossword at the moment, but that said I have never attempted the Times or anything!

Hang in there, I won a digital radio in the Unison crosswords last month - first time I've won anything too, and those must have a much higher level of entrants as they are so much easier than the more technical ones....

Still, keeps me quiet for a while.....

Back to my thesaurus.....

I find Enigmatic Variations very challenging, but I'm told the Listener is even harder. I haven't tried that one yet.

I reckon Sunday Times Mephisto is very challenging. It sometimes it seems as though there is no such word as some of their answers, until I check in Chambers. I was lucky to win one week, but not after a great deal of looking up in reference books and double and treble checking of weird and wonderful words.

I also find the Times Mephisto impossibly hard.

I did win �25 in a Sunday Express Crossword once, and the stamp man has done well out of me too.
