Beelzebub 1,179
Posted by Simon Harris on 14th October 2012
I’d hesitate to say this was an especially easy week for Beelzebub, but I did manage to complete the puzzle unaided, in one sitting, which is something of a rarity. It would be interesting to hear how other solvers found this.

Apologies that this one seemed to fall through the cracks. Whilst interest may have passed, here it is for completeness.

A slightly rushed post as I’m fairly late with this. One that I’m not sure about at 1dn.

This felt like a relatively mid-paced week, but a handful took quite some effort to explain. 10ac still has me beaten, so I’ve reproduced the clue in the hope that a passing reader may be able to elucidate.

This generally went quite smoothly, though I did have to check 29ac and 8dn before being confident enough to write them in. A careless slip at 30ac made 27dn unsolvable until my mistake was rectified.

A fair bit tougher than the previous Beelzebub I blogged, and it was quite a wait before the first answer slotted in. There’s quite a lot of anagrammatic material here, which I don’t mind. One question mark from me at 27ac, where I’m fairly sure the answer is correct, but cannot see the wordplay.

This was one of those rare occasions where I get to feel smug for finishing an entire Beelzebub without recourse to reference materials or other aids, so it must have been towards the more tractable end of the Beelzebub spectrum. Not that this was overly easy: I recall a satisfying solve over a couple of sessions, and just having to check 10ac and 23dn in Chambers before being confident enough to blog them.
