Some Monstrous Crypticity (if that's a word?)
🕑 Added 2023-03-22 10:00:07 +0000 UTCEvery month Mark takes on The Times Monthly Club Special without using a dictionary (at first) - how mad this is gets revealed when you see some of the puzzle's answers go in, and their clues explained.
These puzzles are the hardest regularly-published cryptic puzzles anywhere. This one - from February 2023 - was compiled by Roger Phillips, the Listener Crossword editor.

I sometimes think Mark could solve a puzzle that did just contain made up, albeit plausible sounding, words

Even it if isn't a word, it might appear in one of these amazing puzzles! Thanks, Mark!
