    Nice one! I loved the theme. Got all the themers but somehow got stuck on PORKCHOPS 🤦
    • Emma Oxford 🤓9:47 · 2022-05-13T21:06:43.765Z
      That was a tough one! But very fun, especially once I saw the theme. PS, in 28D, it's spelled Tolkien.

        For once, 'i before E' applies! Fixed now. Thanks Emma :)

          Liked most of it but ran into trouble at the bottom - can you take "name" out of the clue for 40A since it's in the answer?
          • kieranjboyd constructor · 2022-05-14T21:34:32.560Z
            Apologies! Thanks for pointing out this goof - I've updated the clue :)
            • sal17 13:57 · 2022-05-15T11:35:46.229Z
              Awesome - thanks!
