I intended that the 32 solutions would use every possible combination of the vowels AEIOU (ranging from none of them to all five), but not for the first time something has gone wrong. Thankfully the problem can be fixed by changing one letter in the completed grid. What are the two new words that result?

Solvers should submit the answer to the question, and nothing else, in the answer box below. There is no need to send a completed grid or solution, or to explain your answer. Closing date for entries is midnight on March 20th 2021. The winner will receive their choice of any of the Telegraph Crossword Books. In the event of two or more entries being received from the same solver all of these entries will be disqualified, except that mistakes can be corrected by using the box below and clearly requesting that the earlier entry be withdrawn. The winner will be drawn at random from the correct entries. The editor’s decision is final.
Please note that, due to punitive postal charges, while the competition is open to all, the prize is only available to UK solvers.

A review will be published after the closing date.
