It took me ages to work out what the theme to today's Strands was, to the extent that even after I'd found every single answer, and the spangram, I didn't get it. Yes, this says more about me than about today's puzzle, because it's really quite obvious once you spot it, and I'm sure most people today understood what was going on much sooner.
Still, it did depend to an extent on which words you found first; if, like me, you identified PEACE, SMOKE, GIVE and TRIAL as the first four, you'll have been struggling for any connection whatsoever. All of the words I found were instead examples of my simply looking at the letters and making words. Sometimes they turned up hint words, which I ignored. Eventually, I found all of the answers. It wasn't pretty, but it got the job done.
