I was just trying something different - I hope it was not too terrible an idea. If so, apologies

Quite enjoyed it. I managed to get two rows. I defy anyone to spot the films, I think that one is a bit of a stretch. However, good grid, and something different is always good.

Absolute rubbish. Get a grip

Burt - TCBH managed a couple of rows. Get smart...

Hi Giggsy this is intended as constructive feedback- thanks for trying something new- my favourites are always the unusual formats- for me this was all too much of a stretch... the idea of a normal grid with all of the words just chopped is maybe too difficult? I'm impressed that TCBH got 2- I just sat and stared! Trying to find word commonalities. May possibly work with a few more letters per word, or less usual word prefixes that give just a hint at what's going on!
Not meant to be harsh criticism I just think feedback helps if its a new idea. Thanks again :)

I managed to get the football teams in the nick of time!
I agree that 1 category of truncated words is fine. But more variety for the others would be much better.

Very tricky
