Spoilers For Monday June 1st 2015

[James Robinson]

So, we've reached June, and that means we're pretty close to crowning the first champion of 2015, with the finals starting on Wednesday.

We have our 8 finalists, so these last 2 preliminaries being broadcast today and tomorrow will decide who will be the carryover champion for the next series, which starts on June 15.

James Judge is in pole position at the moment, having won Friday's close encounter. But, we'll be the "Judge" to see if he can keep it up.

Only 4 episodes this week, so Gloria Hunniford will be in all week, with us off to the horses on Friday......

Andy will be recapping later on.

REMOVALS in the MARVELS round.

[Tony Atkins]

Beaters available in the SHOOTER+BA round and the untipped+T round (though I manage PUTTIED for 7).
ADIOSES as alt to DOSAGES in R13. Alt 3rd numbers (50-5)x10-4-4 = 442. Back to trying 2 away from 660...

Back to trying 2 away from 660...

I only got to 3 away with ((100 - 3) x (4 + 1 + 1)) + 75.

GREIGE in round 10, one of my favourite words, as well as JIGGER.

INPUTTED for an 8 in one of those rounds - it seems Nick completely forgot to go to Dictionary Corner. I got 657 in the 660 round. (100-3)×(4+1+1)+75.

Susie mentioned CLOVERS - is that considered in these days?

Would have been a different final if Graeme had such a deadpan delivery of the conundrum solution!

Not a lot of people know this, but the difference between -ISE and -IZE endings is in the deadpanness of the delivery. So if you ever have to decide which ending to use, think how it would be said in the sentence.

So that's why "surprise!" is always spelt with an S.
