Morning All! This is the review of the final Sunday Prize Puzzle to be set by Brian Greer/Virgilius (in case you missed his post on the day of the puzzle). I found this blog, if I recall correctly, just before he took over from the late Nuala Considine in the Sunday slot so he has been a constant Sunday companion to me in my crossword endeavours and his input will be sadly missed from the Telegraph in my opinion.
This was a classic puzzle of his – some very simple but elegant clues with superb surface readings and all very accessible. There are four clues that I have highlighted that fit the finale theme.
