A very enjoyable crossword which I recommend to all levels of solver.
I will try to get a review up later today.
A thoroughly entertaining puzzle – thanks to Retiarius. Anyone who can do the back-page puzzle should have a go at this – you’ll really enjoy it. My favourite clue 14a/21d.
Well done Retiarius – that is a very nice puzzle.
The theme works very well.
Very enjoyable – well-done and thanks for an entertaining puzzle.
