Jazzgirl, it's maybe just wishful thinking on my part - wanting people to master crosswords, enjoy mastering crosswords, help others to master crosswords...
Still, I have learned a valuable lesson... !

I am learning all the time (mostly) It would have been interesting to read the missing "link"had it been posted.
Too late now.

For anyone remotely interested in the competition

Jazz, Malone and Jono, this is the most interesting thread I have seen for some time. Well done, Jazz, for spotting it was the £100,000 Treasure Hunt.

IMHO it’s not a good idea telling porkies on this Forum, there’s always someone around to catch you out.😇

Norah, both Malone and I spotted it elsewhere before it appeared here

Reminds me of ‘Masquerade’ in the 1970s when Kit Williams hid a bejewelled golden hare. That was ingeniously puzzled in a book, this seems rather less ingenious.

Jono
I remember that book.
The fellow who set this treasure hunt is a well-known prankster who has fooled the public as well as some prominent people

Jazz, I still have the book. Masquerade has an interesting story, cleverly explained here…

Jono.
I never bought the book, but that video is fascinating.
Thanks
