When I solve a clue and think I’m certain I won’t have to go back to verify it, I tick the clue number in the paper.

Solving time: 24 minutes
If there were to be awards for consistent setting, I am sure Phi would in with a shout of the award. His puzzles are always entertaining and are just about right for their target audience, be it Listener, Beelzebub or Indy Magazine.

In keeping with Orlando’s divided personality, perhaps, there seemed to be an easy half and a difficult half to this puzzle – not that I’m assigning a specific gender to either! I got most of the top half and part of the bottom done in 5-10 minutes, then stewed over the fag-end for another 15-20. Two Shakespeare references, both plays I did at ‘A’ level… I wonder if Orlando did A levels in 1981 as well?
