RADIX as a R1 beater.

(Don't think I've ever given a 5 as a beater before)

7 was not as good as it got, Susies. UNDERTIP/REUNITED in R8

Great stuff Jeff -- were you fishing for PARAKEET in the OPERATE round? Commiserations to Lawrie on keeping it so close, too.

AGONALS as the word for which ANALOGS^ could be a falseagram.

Yeah, I saw REUNITED and was very surprised no-one else noticed it. :)

PENITUDE as well in that round. Had AGONALS too as a beater.
Interesting decision not to gamble on the last nums by Lawrie...even if you aren't a strong numbers player it's surely in your best interests to gamble. Was surprised they both didn't get 897 though, though it must be hard in the studio.

I wondered that too.

Glad to see they aren't using ludicrously hard FIBREFILLesque conundrums for the finals, instead using ones that you might actually have a chance of getting even if you aren't an obsessive apterite. I'm on 2/2 solved so far, though I expect that percentage will change!
