Crossword #050 - Groovy music!

Coincidences are what the universe does for fun, to paraphrase the Eleventh Doctor, and it is surely one Hell of a coincidence that the 50th cryptic crossword on this blog coincides with the premiere of Ncuti Gatwa's first season of Doctor Who! It feels like it was almost meant to be... and part way through the new series, Cryptic Who hits its first year mark too! I have my party hat ready and a glass of Prosecco on the go as I type this! As you may have gathered, I love all of Doctor Who equally. Yes, even The Twin Dilemma... and there will be many more wide and varied themes for the crosswords as we forge ahead into the second year of this blog. 

I would like to take this opportunity to say A BIG HELLO TO NEW CRUCIVERBALISTS and a special thank you to all of you who have stuck with me to date. If you like this blog, please, please, do me a big favour and share it with your mates on your favourite social media platforms. Thank you. Finally, in personal news, I have passed my viva, so I am now an actual Doctor myself! Double celebrations! 

This week, I have chosen the theme of music to chime in with the second episode of the new series, The Devil's Chord. In it, you will find names of composers and musical puns. I hope that you enjoy it, and that you're as excited for the new series as I am!

Much love, Code Nine x
