Heeeeeeeeeeeeeey! Here's the first task! Over to TASKMASTER!

TASKMASTER wrote:
Submit your answers to this crossword into this thread. You can make as many attempts as you like. The team with the highest number of correct answers at midday tomorrow (Thursday) will be the winners. If one team gets all the answers correct and posts them in this thread, the task will be over. If both teams get the same number of correct answers, the first team to post those answers will be the winners. New posts in this thread will supersede any previous posts (so answer all the clues you can each time). Answers may be provided in any format, as long as the judges can understand them. You will not be told how many answers you have correct until midday tomorrow, unless you have each one correct.


Here's your crossword grid:

I'm hoping you just didn't read them, rather than struggled to understand "so answer all the clues you can each time".

Curiosity wrote:

No, mainly because the result may come down to the time things were posted.

Also, to be clear - you know both teams can read this thread, right?

Fair play, other team. Had to go and make/have lunch, and I don't think the rest of our team even know the game has begun yet, so all admiration for the knowledge and/or Google power.

Okay then, Mr Russell, please climb up onto that giant butterfly and take the trip back to the mainland!

Thanks for playing!

The rest of you can go back to enjoying the island - although your next task could arrive at any minute!
