Spoilers for Friday November 23rd 2012 (Series 67 Prelim 78)

[Jordan F]

As we end this week, David Barnard has dominated the majority of it, getting three wins and on strong track to win a fourth. Can he do it? It's the end of Gyles Brandreth, and I liked him better when he wore the odd sweaters. Where's that Gyles?

Join Thomas for the recap later.

Round 1: as well as the classic 8s there's DESOLATE, but OED lists it as an adjective and doesn't allow the addition of the left over R

Round 6: David unlucky with REPLIANT (not in Scrabble), here again with RELATION the OED does not allow the P hook! 2 nines in Scrabble though - wont bore you with them!

Round 12: The plausible TEALIGHT is two words in the OED

Mauro

[Tony Atkins]

QUOINED in R7 as an alt to QUINONE. ISOLATES in R13.

[James Robinson]

FERMION in round 4.

Very well done, David. Nice to get another half-octochamp on the show.

Just ATHELING in round 12 cost me a max game today. Ah well.
