The Ultimate Challenge - from Richard Rogan (Patreon)

Mark takes on a Times Monthly Club Special cryptic, just after hearing of the passing of its author, Times Crossword Editor, Richard Rogan. So there's a bit of reminiscence in this video, because Richard was a good friend.

The puzzle itself is an incredible challenge, with some extraordinary clues and some very recherche vocabulary - will Richard have the last laugh?
