      14A had me stumped, thanks!

      This was a toughie, and with some BAFTA-y stuff for me! (I printed it out, so ignore the time.) I liked 14A, 6D, and 7D, and I think the choice of words for the fill was pretty good (give or take a few 3s). As for 2D, I'm glad you're doing cluing like this; I think decapitalization is entirely fair, and I think your deletion indicators are top-notch and creative from a surface sense. Keep it coming!

        Thanks Aaron, glad you enjoyed it! I wasn't sure how people would feel about the decapitalization in 2D so it's good to hear your feedback :)
