Hi everyone. Me again. Today I need help to get started.
This answer begins with the letter P and has 12 letters.
Clue reads: shift changes with time for dark security operations. (I have no inspiration)
Also, please 11 letters beginning F:
As lethargy-inducing as Heston’s Duck? I like Hans’s Duckling (tip given in spirit)

Heston B's restaurant is the FAT duck so you need 11 letter word starting FAT... to fit the def......

The 12 letter one begins with NIGHT......

once you have quite a few answers...they fit in quickly ...then you can deduce the rest ........still pondering on the perimeter yet

Hi jogamel,
the 12 letter answer begins N, use t for time and it should be apparent.
Heston' s restaurant is the (3) duck. Hanson as in Christian Anderson should get you a start.

Hi bunty, the part quotation (reading clockwise) begins in the 3rd from the left cell in the bottom row (a single letter word), from Shakespeare given in ODQ.
