See if he can get them each done in the 5-6 minutes he's always aiming for - and what causes trouble along the way.

David, you can access Times (of London) crosswords if you subscribe. Outside of the UK and Ireland you can subscribe for £10 a month, cheap.

My dream of actually being able to do cryptic crosswords is shattered as I live on the wrong side of the pond. But I live vicariously through Mark. Love to see this content.
