An enjoyable workout, albeit that we spotted the thematic words virtually from the off. Back to finish off 4574, having been away most of the week.

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...

Daresay I'm not the first to post on this but happy to have assembled a full grid with a reasonable hunch of what the final highlighting will need to reveal but as yet to tackle the final stage....

Yet another Saturday (partially) ruined by a pretentious setter. I mean I'm not entirely thick but I just can't figure out the instructions. Can't they just give us a straightforward crossword as we...

Not a bad puzzle although some of the 3 letter entries made it difficult to ascertain the extra letter. Initially I had a perfectly acceptable alternative answer for 29ac. Not my kind of theme at all....

Neatly constructed puzzle with plenty of guidance built in to get you to the theme, and find the features to be highlighted, although one of them is not too easy to find in Chambers. A lot easier than...

Grrr. It's that time again. Sailed through the rest, and have come to the usual grinding halt with this one last clue which has me utterly stumped. 8down) Beauty's budding offspring (5) I have L?N?Y...

Having been away on holiday a lot recently and playing catch up with numerous crosswords that we do and just about got there, this was a pleasing puzzle to solve. Neatly constructed and entertaining...

Well, it took a long time for the penny to drop, not helped by a wrong entry. A neat treatment of the theme, with some tricky wordplay, including the one I got wrong and still haven't figured out...

Either the thread is hiding again or I'm up here first, which I find a bit unlikely. Either I made a complete dog's dinner of this or it was quite difficult to sort out. Devotees might be on to this...

An excellent puzzle - some tough clues but the entry was quite easy. An unambiguous ending leaving time for other weekend activities. A little perplexed by the Emmy Award winner but could only think...

Is the penny-drop moment actually going to be that there is in fact no solution at all that can be agreed upon?

A perfectly fine introductory Listener if a little too close to the Spectator genre. Thank you Nutmeg....

Lots of people are having trouble finding it. If you go onto the HOME page of the crossword club site and scroll down to The Listener, you can find it there.

This was an interesting challenge - easy to get off to a flying start but I got quite bogged down in the 12-letter answers. The grid structure and the format of the Round clues were new to me, which...

Not a difficult grid fill and I had a good idea what I was looking for but it did take a little while to understand what exactly the four groups of omitted letters was about. Thanks to Nudd....

I really enjoyed this one, the theme revealed itself early enough to be a great help in dealing with clashes. Lots and lots of thematic material throughout. Nice to see a new setter too - thanks...

A very straightforward start to the year. Nice surface readings for clues and a fair endgame. Clues not overly hard, though. Onward in 2019

I've tried searching but there doesn't seem to be a thread in existence. So ... This was another great crossword which has rounded off a superb year for the Listener puzzle. I thought the clues were...
