- WORKING

Despite being a big fan of the movie Best In Show – which parodies the prestigious and pretentious dog show world – it took me ages before I realized what today’s theme was about.
Being British, Westminster automatically triggers thoughts of the Houses of Parliament, Big Ben and all that tourist malarky, rather than The Westminster Kennel Club and its many canine categories.
Despite my ignorance, this was still a really enjoyable puzzle, with dozens of hint words lurking in the grid to throw us off scent. Top marks, Strands.
