Listener 4604 Tour De Force By Kea

An absolute delight. I thought this was going to be impossible at first, but some lucky guesses at the words in Ring 5 proved invaluable. Tough but scrupulously fair clues, and refreshing to have a...

The Listener Crossword 4603 - In Round Numbers By Colleague

A satisfactory end to a complex puzzle but still struggling with the alternate title and parsing some of the clues whose answers we had to work out by back solving. Thanks, Colleague....

Listener 4484 Quiet Guests By Schadenfreude

An absolutely first-rate puzzle to start the year. I felt smug having got the basis of the theme from the first "crowded cell" I came across along with the title, but then there was the small matter...

Listener 4482 A Paper Construction

Four fifths of the grid solved and we have the central area. Some work to do yet, and we are absolutely not fans of folding.

Listener No. 4433: Yes You Can By Atlas

The year is still young, and already we have a new setter: welcome, Atlas. I found this trickier than I expected, with some of the incorrect letters hard to spot even when I had the entry, and...

Listener No 4427: Shut That Door! By Bandmaster

I've enjoyed this all the way through. I was lucky in getting the first across and the first down quite quickly, so I could start filling the grid fairly soon. Once the theme became clear it helped to...

Listener 4291: Maxon By Schadenfreude

Luckily I spotted what had to be done fairly quickly -- a device regular solvers will have met before. This assisted in solving some tough clues. Slightly underwhelming, feeling a little...

Listener Crossword No 4276 Fore And Aft By Poat

I thought this was a reasonably straightforward offering from Poat. Fairly obvious what was going on from an early stage but none the worse for that. Just a few wordpalys to resolve and then it's back...

Listener No 4236 Oh No! Not Another Playfair, By Mordred

I usually hate playfairs, so what a joy to have this one with a difference. Thank you so much Mordred (for a nice easy solve, too, that will be perfect to welcome newcomers). Great fun!

Listener 4232 A Murder Mystery By Hedge-Sparrow

What a long preamble, but what a fun puzzle. It took me a few minutes to get what the down message was telling me, but the P D'd, all was clear. Thanks hedge-sparrow.

Listener No 4230 Elm By Quinapalus

Whilst one might argue about some of the clueing, and several ambiguities in extra letter(s), there is no doubt whatsoever that the endgame is most elegant. A real tough test, just about worth the...
