Not sure if that was what you were hoping for in terms of being more interesting - the small numbers are fairly predictable in each case, but at least there's a bit of variation with the large ones. Cheers Jon. The 4 large one is interesting (a relative term of course) - it shows once again that 4 ...

Remember being confused as to why PERFECT didn't prompt anyone in DC to put the O on the end at the time.

We looked into that, but it was the same price, and further away.

Says the Geordie Shore/Hollyoaks guy... I'm aware of the Geordie Shore guy cause some of the cast were on Backchat a while ago - I couldn't tell you any more than that. That's why he's a 1. And whilst I used to watch Hollyoaks, I also know of Stephanie Davis because she was cast off the back of one...

Clearly not - you're in it, and capable of contributing.

The main issue for me from this episode was not the fairly clear Hardfording, but the fact that John stole Liam's "Oh I don't know!" quip from 2 days earlier to get his own laugh.

I mean seriously, let's put the crimes into perspective here...

Hah, I should point out, I wasn't accusing Thomas of anything. I was more offering a general route to avoid your bitching

Well at least we all now know that if we want to cheat on TV, we just have to look conflicted, rather than like we're still looking, and then Corby won't go on a rant.

Oh cock off, don't let me get complained at - I've got fucktonnes to do for Mole at the moment, and I'm going to get bitched at if some letters are in and some aren't ¬_¬

TAUTOMER in a round I think. But I was only half watching and there wasn't a thread up so I didn't really care.

Desserts are for chicks. "No thanks, I won't have some more meat, I'll save room for some chocolate." Jesus. "Get rid of starters everywhere" shall we Graeme? I give it a month before every Chinese restaurant in the country has been forced out of business. But maybe that's what ...

I made a rather splendid 'Bakewell' tart for my Dad the other day. Instead of making in in a pastry case, I made it in a shortbread biscuit case. It was very delicious, though I say it myself. I have presented 'Bakewell' thusly, because I'm not the Bakewell tart shop in Bakewell so can't call it a ...

*uses bait to catch a fish and slaps you around the face with it*

And I'm thinking, FFS woman. I have to find one with some balance. And that can be adapted should a full-blown veggie decide to turn up. Have you never watched CDWM?!

I watch food programmes to tut at their errors, not to learn...

But yes, I cook a lot. As pretty much everyone knows. But I felt I should point this out anyway.

I'm also pleased to see that you recognised the existence of starters in your post.

Well, it's 2 months until the first event in the brand new FOCAL calendar. So as a bit of a teaser for those who have any interest, I thought I'd post the top 16 for this year. *Top of the Pops countdown music plays* In 16th place, with 178 points from 5 events - Michelle Nevitt! In 15th place, with...

Delighted to announce that Co Dublin will now NOT just be a one-time event. After the success of this month's event, Eddy has decided to turn it into a fixture on the Co-event diary, and furthermore, we're all delighted that he wishes it to be a part of FOCAL. The date for next year's event is provi...

So then, last night. I start in a high-speed car chase, only instead of a car chase, it turns out to be a car race (with lap times and distance to the car behind flashing up on screen). And instead of a cars, it turns out we're racing hovercraft like from the old videogame Wipeout, even though ther...

As Callum seems to have wandered off - I'll try and answer for you, Andy.

Unless his plans have altered drastically, the tournament will follow the same path as Lincoln does.

From memory, the sports style progressions ended up giving far too much weighting to people who'd won something and done fuck all for the rest of the year. Whereas yours I think went the other way and ended up giving too much weight to people just turning up all the time and also looked a fucking me...

I see. To be honest I hadn't read the bit about "only a certain number of scores counting", which actually might make me change my mind. I'm not sure. I've got a cold and can't think properly at the moment. Where the cut off point would be for that, based on this year's tournaments, would...

We tested it, we tested others. It worked. Others didn't. If it throws up massive miscarriages of justice in the first year, then we can look again, but for now, it seems to be working :P That's fine but just out of interest can I ask what other systems you checked? I'm thinking of dropping the who...

Being completely blunt about it, even though we have no real definitive proof that at this point in time the production team do anything but draw lots, even if they DO - ultimately, they're running a business. If they decide to keep people apart/put people together etc. etc. that's their prerogative...

Hello ladies and gents. It's been a while since we've said anything about the year-round Co-event league idea that was mooted earlier in the year, and so it may have seemed that nothing was happening with it, but it's with great pleasure that I can announce with at least a fair amount more detail, t...

Broadchurch was the best thing I've watched for a while. Totally missed the boat when it was on telly but binged on it the last couple of weeks. Have you watched both series? The first one was stunningly good, the second patchy - still worth watching, but the first series had set the bar impossibly...
