@HurdyGurdy19 - neither do I. I found the Spangram by chance and then just found words! No idea what the words have to do with the Spangram!

Same here, it’s ridiculously niche

Not my area of expertise! Still no idea.

I guessed what the theme was but they didn’t help. I lacked the patience to work the random words out.

I also guessed what the theme was but must admit I had to have a bit of help from Google

I am struggling today. Have got the Spangram and all but two of the words, the top two on the right hand side.
Have exhausted all hint potential, please could some kind person DM me a clue or the answers?

Easy today.

@OrsolaRosso - sorry didn’t see your message till now. Did you get them in the end? I can’t remember what they were now!

Today was much easier thankfully.
