For anyone out there who has been doing The Listener for a very long time, I wondered if anyone knew the back story to Listener 2566 - Lip Service.

I was looking at old stats on The Listener website and saw it mentioned on the 1991 stats.

It says that it only had 14 entries, all of which were incorrect!

Considering the norm is around 500 entries, there must be something more to this.

SPOILER ALERT - the above link contains the solution.

Thanks Brendan, hadn’t thought of looking there.

Looks impossible!

I agree,

The clues look difficult enough to begin with, then you add Base 12 to the mix, and they're virtually impossible - as the lack of any correct solutions clearly indicates!!
