The clues...
Requests for help should normally include the clue itself, the number of letters in the answer, and details of any you already have. Any additional information or special instructions, common in Listener puzzles, should also be included.
Hints only, please, no answers.

The theme...
Help towards the theme may also be sought here. The help given should be fairly gentle in nature. Aim for just a nudge, a pointer in the right direction - and certainly not anything that would spoil the puzzle for others.

If anyone feels that too much information has been revealed, they should get in touch with the site administrator - Norah.evoluted@aol.com. Norah errs on the side of caution, so anything at all iffy is likely to be removed.

The Listener is a unique puzzle and should be treated with respect.

How many times have we had this theme? Maybe it's time I went out and bought it to see what all the fuss is about.

A little early for hints?

Most solvers won't even see this until tomorrow.

Apologies if my comment/question turns out to be a hint. It wasn't meant to be.

Throck - I think your post is fine - the theme wasn't familiar to me from other puzzles!

Spoiler alert: Next week will be Flanders & Swann. Or maybe Dambusters.

Took longer than it should have done for the penny to drop. Clever puzzle, though I'm not totally sold on the final image. It would have been better had "draw a thematic shape" been better specified, but it would still not be quite right.

Very impressive, nonetheless.

Thanks, Axes.

I'm stuck on the NE corner- can't find any words to fit 13Ac, 23Ac and 8Dn.

For the phrase, I have a well known one of 29 letters, but I need 33 - help, please!
