Presenter Tom Bradby described Britain as being “in the grip of jigsaw mania” with millions of people stuck indoors with time on their hands.
Wentworth is based in Malmesbury, Wiltshire, and its British-made puzzles have their own fan club, with HM Queen also believed to be something of a devotee.
Online jigsaw fan communities have blossomed, with the co-ordinator of one Facebook group lauding the soothing process for its mental health benefits during the pandemic restrictions.
