@embee

It's not just this crossword, it's all 3 cryptics (Guardian and Times)that have been a tad on the easy side. I had everything finished before today's Arsenal match had even started!

Ain't me being particularly brilliant - I'm still hopelessly stuck on TLS 946

@ tryinghard: "Pepper's Ghost" is a stage device I knew nothing about, either (NOT related to Sgt P !) -- try googling it for explanation!

Enjoyed this week. Last one:

12a Banish fish that swallowed a British coin? (5)

E_P_L

So I imagine it's expel - but an exel isn't a fish, is it?

Eccles-commiserations, I too would have preferred a tough crossword and an Arsenal win to the other way round!
