The Guardian - Cryptic Crossword

How to play

Fill the numbered grid with answers worked out from a set of cryptic clues. Each clue hides its answer behind wordplay, an anagram, a hidden word, or a pun, alongside a plain definition, and the number in brackets gives the answer's letter count. Across and down entries cross and share letters, so cracking one clue helps with the rest. Solve every clue to complete the grid.
