I hope everyone is well and bearing up with this self isolation. It certainly helps to have some enjoyable puzzles to help keep us occupied and, to that end, this Everyman does not disappoint.
Much like yesterday's in Guardian Prize, the setter has used the full gamut of cluing techniques. There are anagrams, but far fewer than usual, hidden clues, charades, initial letters and more.
To say there was a wide range of cultural figures would be an understatement!
There's an American rock ban and what they're famous for! A contemporary comedy creation, a work by a major composer, a major literary figure, a Greek muse and a character from a Shakespeare play - and that's not to mention a Hindu God becoming a Jewish patriarch!
I think it's safe to say this will test your knowledge of both high and....'not so high' culture.
I know that we'll all be looking for welcome distractions in these coming weeks and months and this, without a shadow of a doubt, fits the bill perfectly.
Many thanks to the Everyman setter.
