PUZZLER magazine have honoured Roald Dahl’s centenary by creating a giant BFG themed dot-to-dot.

The puzzle, beamed onto Botleys Mansion in Surrey by a giant projector,  measured 40 foot high by 80 foot wide (12 metres by 25 metres).

It is thought to be the largest dot-to-dot ever created.

The intricate puzzle took an hour to complete and consisted of 1000 dots.

Staff from Puzzler Media’s HQ in Redhill, Surrey competed to find out who had the steadiest hand to take on the task, with Lynda Newland proving she had the luck of the draw.

Mark Whiteway, Publishing Manager of Puzzler Media said: “We’ve been publishing dot-to-dots in our magazines for over four decades but in the last year we’ve seen requests for this kind of puzzle go dotty.

“We came up with Creative Dot-to-Dot, a magazine dedicated to this jollysome, stress-fizzling pastime.

“Adult puzzlers have taken a leaf out of Dahl’s books by embracing this carefree childhood activity. So it seemed fitting to celebrate the life of one of the most imaginative, magical and best-loved storytellers with a dot-to-dot that’s giant in every way. We had a huge amount of fun solving it and we hope you do too.”

The puzzle will be included in a special double-page feature of the September issue of Creative Dot-to-Dot.
