Deri has provided the Thursday crossword this week. I think that this is the first time that I have encountered this compiler.
Guardian 29,665 – Anto

Independent 12012 / Eccles
We know to expect a very good crossword when we see Eccles named as the setter.
Inquisitor 1901: What’s My Line? by Henri
We have a puzzle from a new Inquisitor setter this week. The only previous puzzle by Henri that I can find on fifteensquared is one submitted to the York Sloggers & Betters meeting last October.
