Another easy one I think, polished off in under 30 minutes.

Hi everyone. A puzzle from a setter who clearly likes double definitions … I found it of mid-range difficulty, but used dictionary help at the end. Thanks setter.

I found this to be at the easier end of the Jumbo scale and completed it over two sessions.

Oscar season and we are off to the pictures!

An entertaining Jumbo crossword with some clever wordplay and neat surfaces but rather more unknowns (to me) than usual.

This was a very gentle offering, difficulty-wise, and deliberately so I think. 

Hi all. Another last minute blog bashed out on a Friday evening, but as I solved the puzzle with a glass of wine and I’m on holiday next week, it’s probably not surprising that I enjoyed it! Thanks setter!

Quite a slow start but I speeded up and finished over two sessions.

A challenge to pick a COD from four or five contenders in this medium difficulty puzzle.

I enjoyed this Jumbo. It was mostly standard fare, but with a couple of chewy bits.
