[David O'Donnell]

I feel your pain - most of the time when I'm watching stuff on terrestrial I just have it on analogue because constant slight fuzziness is better than it just stopping every other second

[Dinos Sfyris]

I think the cool kid way this time is (100-7-6)x5+4-3=436

This was just an excuse to mention I've finally passed my driving test 5th attempt

[David O'Donnell]

Congrats Dinos, didn't we tell you fifth time is a charm?

[Craig Beevers]

One of those annoying games where the champ could be winning by 50 points if he hadn't kept taking risks.

[Joseph Bolas]

STASHING

[Martin Gardner]

AGONISTS as well

Martin

[Craig Beevers]

ASTONISH also. Probably edited them out.

REMOTES

[Michael Wallace]

I want to see that challenger get another game

[Joseph Bolas]

I want to see that challenger get another game

Yeah , she could say that Jonathan's risks put her off and she lost .

To be honest, she could claim Des put her off (but then again, who couldn't?)

[Martin Gardner]

Well he's won although not exactly in style, so that's six wins. I think if he wins tomorrow he's mathematically qualified for the finals and if he didn't, the incoming player would have to win all six with a higher points total to be #8 seed, so that's unlikely. That's to say by his eighth show we will know who the eight seeds are, at which point I will make some predictions, which will invariably be wrong.

[Dinos Sfyris]

Cheers David

The challenger was an absolute dear! You could hear Dudley laughing at one bit. I'm gonna watch it on 4+1 cos she was so lovely

[Dinos Sfyris]

Martin

So will mine probably, and I watched the bloody thing!

[David O'Donnell]

R13 UNIFACE

A coin where one side has the design on, the other side is blank. Common in test pieces I believe.

I echo those sentiments. That was the funniest thing I've seen in ages! Bless her cotton socks.

[JasonCullen]

ok, Jason, what was the joke that Carol told the audience before the programme?

I can't remember the exact details . It was something about chickens flapping their wings when they were getting broody . It wasn't that good to be honest.

[JasonCullen]

R13 UNIFACE

I told Jonathan he missed TUNICAE in that round

[Howard Somerset]

During the rest of the 30 seconds for round 5 I came up with (100 + 5/2) x 8.

Not permitted by the rules, but I quite liked it.
