Times Cryptic No 29513 — No 20 across

Author   plusjeremyPosted on 10th April 2026 at 5:56 AM10 April 2026Categories Daily Cryptic

52:18, which sadly included a fifteen-minute struggle to get the last two clues. I nearly gave up, but I’m nothing if not persistent. Quite a good and challenging puzzle, in my opinion.
