A diagonal Latin square is one in which sets of the integers 1 to n have been arranged in the cells of a "square of order n", in such a way that no row, no column and no diagonal of any length contains the same integer more than once.

In this week's problem, where n=5, you are given as clues five of the twenty five integers and asked to fill in the other twenty, so as to meet the three conditions imposed.
