  • DERIVATIVE
  • CREPTED
  • ETHOS
  • ROT

It’s quite unusual in Quordle to get an anagram where every letter is in an incorrect position, so it took me a while to convert “those” to ETHOS.

That minor struggle aside, I got the other three words – particularly CREPT, which is just one letter from my starting word “crypt”.

Johnny is a freelance pop culture journalist who has been writing about the internet, music, football and famous people since the iPhone was a twinkle in Steve Jobs’ eye. Previously known as Pop Detective, his journalistic career began by making up stories about Madonna’s addiction to sausage rolls (not true, by the way). A man of little talent, his career is rich and varied and includes interviews with Elton John and Blur; and the downside of interviewing Right Said Fred, appearing in a Channel 5 documentary on Peter Kay and fact-checking a German cook’s instruction manual. Somehow, still having the means to live in north London, he is happiest riding his bike and shouting at pigeons.
