I found this one really quite challenging for a Wednesday, but there were some very good clues in there, and some impressive anagrams.

A very quick solve for me today, and probably also for most others. A couple of answers (27ac & 8dn) may have been unfamiliar to some but the wordplay was glaringly obvious in most of the clues, which seemed to me to be rather contrived in places.

It’s only three weeks since the last Arachne puzzle and, according to Andrew’s review of the year, we had only seven of hers in 2009, so this is a welcome early return. There’s much to admire here – smooth surfaces, clever anagrams and some ingenious cluing. Thanks for an enjoyable solve, Arachne.

My fastest Inquisitor ever. About an hour to solve all the clues. Quick shufti in Google to find the quotation attribution. Short pause to mow the lawn, then search for “directions”. Find them, remember my Shakespeare and search in a NNW direction. Done!
