Does anyone else feel like they've seen Steven somewhere before?
Other than yesterday's show.

I liked the second teatime teaser as it reminded me of 'brown wings'.

Alternative second numbers: 9x25+3=228;228x4-1=911

Best I can find for first is: (9+7+1)x(5x8-1)=663

I warm to Steven.
I want to give him a hug to reassure him, - but that may have the opposite effect.

I imagine that would largely depend on your state of dress and whether or not you were sporting an erection.

Sorry Matt; I'm afraid I can't divulge that information.

Yes. In the director's box at Chelski. He seems to have almost completely lost his accent though, remarkable.

Ha, I just noticed - at the end the challenger gets out of her seat and walks to Stephen and starts saying something. Apart from Jon/Charlie, I've not seen contestants leave their seat whilst it's still recording.

Or TRACERY.

I've been thinking that Stephen could convincingly play the part of a particularly cold-blooded criminal, if he were an actor. I'm sure he's actually a really nice person. Nothing personal. Sorry.

I met Stephen and thought he was a thoroughly nice guy, mainly because he said he'd been practising by reading CDB. And probably also because he looks like Mark Watson, my idol, although that must've been subconscious.
