Not really! Only 7 key letters - one simple anagram - solved in 5 minutes!

Look, I'm not as clever as you alright!

I can't find any more than 6 definite letters - I went through the list of solved missions (That's what you're meant to do right?), and the ones with

are the ones you use aren't they?

For example, on Latin Lover the letter they all begin with is a T, so that's the letter I use? Other ones I got a letter from are Latitude Longitude, Target Practice, Mind the Gap, Sharp as Thorns and A Rose by any other name. There is one more letter lurking somewhere... So would you be ever so kind and give some sort of criptic clue as to where I can find it?

Спасибо Smiling

This puzzle has such a high points value despite being fairly simple because you have to have completed so many other missions to be able to solve it  Smiling

So get completing those missions!

So, there are 9 known puzzles with a single letter reward?

I have the 7 I listed earlier and it would appear that "A Celebration of Tea" and "Let Them Eat Cake" do, as well?

Well as far as this puzzle goes....

Spoiler: Highlight to view

Russian Roulade and Mind the Gap are not needed for this solve. Perhaps they do not have enough pictures to signal a letter.

Any hint on the letter for Celebration of Tea? Unfortunately the day clashed with Celebration of Obama week here in Kenya, so it wasn't possible to arrange at that time.

I did the day of tea a few days afterwards so I'm sure they won't mind if you do it now!
