Notes
As this was a Saturday "Prize Puzzle" in Britain, there are two entries related to it on Big Dave's Crossword Blog — the first, posted on the date of publication, contains hints for selected clues while the second is a full review issued following the entry deadline for the contest. The vast majority of reader comments will generally be found attached to the "hints" posting with a minimal number — if any — accompanying the full review. The National Post skipped this puzzle on Monday, September 2, 2019. For the summer, I am taking a break from producing a detailed review of weekday puzzles. Instead, I will be found relaxing by a pristine lake at a rustic off-grid campground. During this period, I will post an abbreviated "Vacation Edition" which provides a link to the review on Big Dave's Crossword Blog for the puzzle that I expect to be published that day. However, as the National Post occasionally skips puzzles, there is no guarantee that my forecast will necessarily prove to be accurate. I will continue to post the Saturday puzzle although the review will likely appear a few days later.

Note

On Monday, September 2, 2019, the National Post skipped DT 28988 and DT 28989 which were published in The Daily Telegraph on Saturday, March 2, 2019 and Monday, March
4, 2019. As a result, my original postings for Monday, September 2, 2019 and Tuesday, September 3, 2019 pointed to the wrong puzzles. These postings have now been corrected.
