“When between clients I sit in the park,” commented Derrick Knight as he sets crosswords in the park by Little Venice across the canal from his office where he works as a psychotherapist. “When it’s too cold to sit in the park. I go to the pub.”

Derrick Knight
“I’m trying to do it without a dictionary,” says Derrick Knight as he works to set a crossword puzzle for the Times newspaper in the park at Little Venice. Knight’s uncle got him into solving crossword puzzles when he was 15 years old and as an adult he did them everyday on his daily commute from Newark to London until all the people who asked him for help on the train inspired him to write a book on crosswords in 1990. In addition to the Times, he now sets crosswords for the Sun Telegraph and the Independent.
“When between clients I sit in the park,” commented Derrick Knight as he sets crosswords in the park by Little Venice across the canal from his office where he works as a psychotherapist. “When it’s too cold to sit in the park. I go to the pub.”
