This week's puzzle is by Raich, who last brought us "Men In Her Life", a George Eliot-themed puzzle two years ago . Nothing too taxing or out of the ordinary here, though the finish might generate a...

Listener 4042: How to Put On a Little Weight by Charybdis

A while since Charybdis' last Listener (The difficult "Wot no Lines?" in 2007) The grid fill here is much easier, and the quotation was got only after 12 entries. We are left with an ambiguity that...

Hello EV N&C Wine Clubbers, The grid was fairly quickly populated, although it took a bit longer to sort out the 2 extra letters in some of the across clues. It didn't help that I'd assumed some...

Listener 4038: Playtime by Samuel

I am pretty sure there are no ambiguities with Samuel's effort this time! An enjoyable finish, even though many of the extra letters in the clues stood out very blatantly. This type of cluing is hard...
