This puzzle contains eight interlocking squares. Each
square has an eight-letter word reading clockwise or
anticlockwise around it — but one or more letters are
missing from each word. Can you write the missing
letters in the eight blue squares to complete the
puzzle? No plurals are allowed. When you have finished,
another word will be spelt out in the blue squares.

Test your codecracking skills against us! We took 16
minutes and 12 seconds to complete this puzzle — can
you do better? We’ve taken a completed crossword
puzzle and replaced each letter in the grid with the same
number throughout. This week’s starter letter is 24=D,
so write this letter wherever the number appears in the
grid. The completed grid will include all letters of the
alphabet. If you find it hard to get going, call the Extra
Letter line where you will also find a little bit of extra help.
Remember, none of the answers are proper nouns.

Battleships
The entire fleet of ships, shown below, is hidden in the grid. They
may be lying horizontally or vertically, but they must not be
touching each other, even diagonally. The numbers along the side
and top of the grid show you how many parts of ships can be
found in each row or column. When ships are placed in the grid,
you can fill in the misses all around them. Three hits and a miss
have been filled in for you. Can you discover where each ship lies?
