Listener 4352 What’S Missing? By Artix

Excellent puzzle. Totally misinterpreted the first missing item I found, then spent about three hours looking for eight more similar items, before realising I had led myself well up the garden path....

Listener No. 4346: Nonconformist By Towser

Grid entry only took half an hour, but then I'm ashamed to say that it took another half hour for the penny to drop. It raised a chuckle, so thank you Towser....

Ev 1174 Fates By Gaston

What A simple but fun idea, but well executed and a good few smiles raised. And a very full grid of theme stuff in the end. This made for a very enjoyable distraction on a sun. Thank you gaston....

Listener No. 4343: Bear, Bear, Bearing By Chalicea

A fairly typical Chalicea puzzle: nice use of theme, clues not too challenging (though I struggled for a while to find the extra letters in some of the mid-range down clues). A very pleasant exercise:...

Ev 1109 Seaside Capers By Picadilly

Fairly easy gridfill, followed by some head-scratching over the instruction. A lucky search in onelook.com's reverse dictionary led to a possibility; my reaction was at first "no way", followed by...

Listener Crossword No 4280 Face Off By Bero

Another rather gentle exercise with easier than normal clues (perhaps perforce) and a not too complex endgame, neatly tieing up all of the thematic material. Will be interesting to see how solvers...

Ev Sunday Telegraph Enigmatic Variations 1108: Dreams By Rasputin

The main penny-drop moment came on approximately the second clue I looked at, but the endgame is certainly worth filing the grid for. Any grid packed with 60/144 cells predetermined by thematic...

Listener 4279 Hellside By External

Nice gentle cluing from eXternal - first Listener I think. This will be a good starter for new or newish solvers but shouldn't detain the regulars for too long. All definitions sorted, just a bit of...
