Here's what the completed crossword looks like. Use this shape as the first word in the Word Ladder on the back page of the newspaper.

Start the Word Ladder with the shape you revealed from the crossword (HEART). Then, use one of the four clues provided to transform HEART into a new word.

To transform HEART into a new word, use the clue that says "move the first letter to the end." The new word is EARTH. Write this on the second line and find a clue that transforms EARTH to a new word.

To transform EARTH into a new word, use the clue that says "Take the planet that comes before it." The new word is VENUS. Write this on the third line and find a clue that transforms VENUS to a new word.

To transform VENUS into a new word, use the clue that says "Take the culture this goddess is from." The new word is ROMAN. Write this on the fourth line and find a clue that transforms ROMAN to a new word.

There's only one clue left: "Add the letters TICS to the end." This transforms ROMAN to ROMANTICS. Write this on the final line.

Then scan the QR code (it'll take you to this page) and enter ROMANTICS as the password.
