Hello All,

Firstly, thanks very much for all the involvement.

This month's "joint effort" has a "twist" and a "theme" and you will have to open both links to get the whole thing.

Please refrain from putting direct answers to clues on the thread for a while so everyone can have a go at it first. Hints are welcome after a couple of days.

If anyone has trouble understanding the new puzzle, then don't hesitate to ask. However, it is explained fully in the preamble.

Feedback is welcome and remember that you can directly "question mark" setters as each setter is indicated throughout the clue lists.

Hope you enjoy the puzzle.

I have double checked everything. but if any mistakes within the clues are spotted by setters, please don't hesitate to raise the issue with me.

Les, I've spotted a superfluous 's' in my four-letter clue at the end of Skywalker. Not a big deal but for the sake of accuracy.. ;)

Ah, well spotted.

Please note everyone that Lionheart's clue should read

"Darn socks while they're on!" said Skywalker's friend.

Please amend it on your list print out,

Thanks Lionheart.

Thanks, Les! Ixion may wish to disavow my clue at 21d.

Oh bloody nora! Sorry aristo

Please note everyone that 21 Down should be preceded by (G) and not (M) because it is a clue by aristophanes and not ixion. Please all check your letters correspond to your names

Not too bad up to now, only two slight editting typos. I don't need to crawl under a stone just yet!
