An excellent Saturday puzzle, challenging but ultimately manageable. I’m particularly struck by the exceptional quality of the surface readings.

A puzzle from one of my favourite setters (with another one from him in this week’s Listener as well).

It only seems fair to give our Australian commenters first say about this fun puzzle from Auster.

Another new blogger … and a new setter to boot – double whammy? (I’ll be walking in the Pyrenees when this should come out, so no response from me anytime soon.)
The entry in the bottom row is unclued, and answers to seven down clues are entered thematically; the wordplay in each of fourteen across clues has an extra letter, spelling out a relevant question. We have to work out what the unclued entry in the bottom row is, complete it, and finally highlight in the completed grid three alternative titles for the puzzle (10; 14, two words; 5).
