Times Cryptic Jumbo No 1597 – 28th Jan

Author   JohninterredPosted on 11th February 2023 at 12:08 AM10 September 2025Categories Jumbo Cryptic

A fairly typical Jumbo, I think, with a good mix of easy clues and chewier ones. A couple of unknowns as usual, but all readily gettable from the wordplay. I likedĀ  6D, 33D and 48D best. Thank-you setter. How did you all get on?

A nice puzzle for a Saturday, although I’m sorry I can’t find the previous discussions of the “terms” in 9ac.
