An Ode To Clues! The Times Masterclass: 2 May 2025

*** TODAY'S PUZZLE *** Another festival of clue-writing today this time from the Times Crossword Editor himself, Jason Crampton! We have feasted on some incredible Friday puzzles recently and this one is right up there. The puzzle is available to play on The Times crossword club website (which is behind their paywall): https://www.thetimes.co.uk/puzzleclub/crosswordclub/puzzles/crossword/49620 If you enjoy these videos, PLEASE subscribe to the channel. It is free to do so and helps the dreaded YouTube algorithm understand that these puzzles deserve a wider audience. *** NEW CONTENT ON PATREON *** Mark's attempt at the Final puzzle from this year's American Crossword Puzzle Tournament (ACPT) has been released!
