If you need a link:
http://www.spectator.co.uk/article_assets/articledir_11862/5931183/crossword.pdf

Couldn't sleep so started early, (8 hours behind you all) especially because these wankers really ticked me off:

Check the 2nd entry. Done in 45 minutes!? I must be really dumb, but I'll help if I can.

Hi Zardoz,

Thanks for the link to the Spectator...

As a matter of interest, what did the wankers do to tick you off?

Welcome SimonG.

Those guys simply post to brag about how fast they've done the puzzle, with incredible times. Well, maybe they're brilliant.

BTW, there is a second thread that might be more useful:

Oops Zaedoz - On the other thread I've just boasted how quickly I finished this one. What can I say to make amends?

Hi AJT, I would have thought that with all the help you provide to people on this forum, you're allowed to have a wee bragette...

Hi AJT,

No offense taken. I was just bitching about the crowd at:
http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Quizzes-and-Puzzles/Crosswords/Question886717.html

We have two threads going now at:
http://www.crosswordsolver.org/forum/56136/spectator-1961
and
http://www.crosswordsolver.org/forum/56138/spectator-1961

My fault, perhaps. How do we combine them? I'm a real newbie at this.

Thank you SimonG - how kind of you. Take the view - if it wasn't so unusual I wouldn't have bragged, would I?
But it's a lovely puzzle.

I don't think we can combine two threads Zardoz - just let one die off.
I looked for your thread on Answerbank, but couldn't find it.
