((25 - 8) x 10) + 75 - 10 - 4 as an Alternative to R9...can't believe I solved this one at the very last second!
(100 ÷ 25 x 2 x 75) + 3 as an Alternative to R14.

Loved the way Jay slowly unravelled PEATINESS in R13... :lol: and I'm kicking myself for failing to solve PRUDENTLY in the conundrum...my ex-boss mentioned this word so many times in the workplace!!

No. Rachel also didn't mention that geezer could have just taken 100/50 away from his 334.

No, likely didn't want to embarrass John tbh

Really gutted John lost today - he was such great viewing and was one of the rare few who actually look like they're enjoying every minute of it, thoroughly fun to watch :)

They would normally mention this sort of contestant-beater. I find it quite unsatisfying when they don't. Similarly with that numbers I mentioned above.

It can be quite annoying to a viewer, yes. But having already done it a number of times to John they probably just decided enough was enough and to just not mention it.
