When this puzzle is finished, 12 special squares, along with the circled squares, will create an image of 56-Down. The 12 squares corresponding to the "reflection" of the special squares, when read clockwise from top left, will spell an alternative name for 56-Down.

The Sunday Telegraph prize crossword today had a vaguely "Titanic" theme to it. Anyone stuck and needing help, I've got all the answers :D:D

Sauer-kraut, yes! It is very clever, all in all.

 

Cruachan, thanks for the heads up on the Telegraph puzzle. I am off to see if we can access it online from across the pond. (Sorry, I don't think you can work the NY Times one without a puzzle subscription.)

Gee, what a great guess on my part.....Like it wouldn't have been an obvious answer considering all the hoopla going on about it lately. :)

 

We always knew Cruachan had all the answers....;)

Ah, I think you'll find the Telegraph on-line version requires a subscription too.
