- This clue's indicators are 'block shared by', 'beyond', and 'Middle'. 'Middle' is a common selector highlighting a letter in some neighbouring fodder by naming its position. 'block shared by' is also a selector, but far less common. It's aiming to point out a collection or block of letters that are common to multiple pieces of fodder. 'beyond' is a simple repositioning indicator, showing us how to position one chunk of fodder relative to another.
