The answers to today’s Strands, game #99, are…

  • COLUMN
  • FOLD
  • PAGE
  • BYLINE
  • FOLIO
  • CAPTION
  • ARTICLE
  • SPANGRAM: NEWSPAPER

  • My rating: Easy
  • My score: Perfect

OK, so I have a bit of an advantage here, having worked on several newspapers (and many more magazines and websites) over the course of my career. If you’ve never been a journalist then answers such as FOLIO, BYLINE and FOLD might have been more difficult to find. But I say ‘might’, because I suspect this Strands puzzle will be relatively easy to solve even so. 

Much of that is down to a combination of the spangram and the theme clue, which is ‘Print edition’. There’s not much that the phrase can suggest, and it probably won’t have taken many people long to spot NEWSPAPER running down the middle of the board from top to bottom.

With that in place it will probably have been a simple matter to find some of the more obvious of the other answers, such as CAPTION and PAGE, and they will in turn have led to the others.
