The question to be answered by solving this month’s crossword was “Eight consecutive answers form a pun on a famous song. Who had a hit with the original version?”
Starting at 9 Across – YEW PICTURE FIN THYME TWO LEAVED MEAL LOOSE HEEL can, if you say it correctly, sound like the song title “You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille’ which was originally a hit for Kenny Rogers.
