Hello everyone. Thanks for the various hints on this one. Perhaps someone can help me get my last one - 35d This is Lemnos, of which we find Greek mu silent (5).

I make this a PD clue and think that I have the correct letters 2-5. This gives me two possible entries, according to TCD. Can anyone help me with the location of the gap please?

Hi, it goes after the 'i' in silent.

Many thanks! for some reason I had concentrated my search on the line above...it seems so obvious now.

They always do, sadly. I'd like to echo your thanks to everyone here. Without the hints I would probably still be trawling through TCD clue by clue

I'm almost there but the bottom left corner is causing me problems. Getting 22d would help: "Two seconds remaining, making lass uneasy (8)", which I think becomes "less uneasy". Thanks.

Orson - two seconds - S and MO - remaining - OTHER. Your letter change is good.

Thanks, smartie!

Like everyone else I initially groaned on opening the paper on Saturday, and couldn’t face even starting until yesterday. But now pleased I did, thought that was pretty good, not too impenetrable and moderately enjoyable. Not a fan of the pd, but if it’s once a year I can live with it. Particularly enjoyed 13, 16, 28 and 2.

A bit late in the day for this one but I have been trying to solve this puzzle intermittently and am nearly there. I am stuck on the top right corner and cannot proceed further. Having come this far I would be grateful if some kind soul could give me a hint on the following clues: 15A, 10D, 23A. I am certain the latter is a PD type clue. I have the corrected letter message and the hidden six devils but despite this cannot fill the grid! I am not a fan of this PD format!

Hi

15a sounds like a cat- Rex is the cat- your answer sounds like that- think parks

10d it is one of France's cities- not cuties- in the North quite well known- preceded by LA

23a PD clue is broken at a par...........Tely

First letter of grid entry is c.

Think about what deliverymen/postmen deliver- this makes the sentence complete.
