MAESTROS

Probably the Wiki.

[Chris Davies]

MAESTROS

And MESOSAUR.

[Ben Wilson]

3rd numbers- (6-1)*75+100-8

[Matt Morrison]

I would have liked to have seen more of George.

3rd numbers- (6-1)*75+100-8

Very good, I only managed to do the same as the contestants.

[Innis Carson]

Shame George didn't settle in until about half-way through the game, he seemed to be pretty good. He could well have won if it weren't for a couple of blanks, which I'm guessing were nerves.

[Stuart Arnot]

3rd numbers alt:

(75 + 1 - 6) * 8 + 7 - 100

[Kirk Bevins]

COHERER as a beater in round 1, MAESTROS and MESOSAUR in round 9 (DC had MESOSAUR the other day and they missed it today) and then 467 a couple of ways in round 14, the simplest being:

(75+6)x7-100

Good game today and I think George looked slightly annoyed to have come so close and lost.

[Ben Hunter]

As well as MESOSAUR they missed DOMAINES, which was also there the other day.

663.

Me too, he was a dreamboat.

DC didn't miss DOMAINES, you clearly missed watching the show.

Sorry I meant the contestants, didn't read your post properly.

Haha, just finished watching the show and came here to post exactly the same thing - probably for different reasons from yours, though.

Really? I thought you'd want to have sex with him too.

He's only 17 for goodness' sake. Wait until he's graduated and become a maths teacher and gets invited back onto the show and becomes a record-breaking octochamp in five years' time. Then I'll want to have sex with him.

[Matt Morrison]

Haha.

Er, back to my lookalikes thing. If Steven Briers is Sid from Skins, surely George could be his cast mate playing Tony Stonem?

[Dinos Sfyris]

Damn I got MESOSAUR (MASSEUR + O) and felt really clever until I visited this thread! I missed CHEERIO though which is like my favourite sign off

[Brian Moore]

Also CHOIRED in R1

Bum, sorry, was in my dictionary and didn't think it was a dodgy one.

[Phil Reynolds]

Bum, sorry, was in my dictionary

Bum is also in my dictionary.

[Brian Moore]

Bum, sorry, was in my dictionary

Bum is also in my dictionary.

Well CHOIR is in the OED as a verb, so I reckoned CHOIRED would be allowed, in the same way that BUM is in the dictionary, so you could have BUMMED.

He could well have bummed, but unless you have any evidence, that's slander.

I'm not sure which OED you're referring to here, but it's not the one used on the programme.

I'm not sure which OED you're referring to here, but it's not the one used on the programme.

It was the online complete OED, which I know is not the one used in the programme; but as I didn't think it was a contentious word, I didn't double-check with Lexplorer. My mistake, as I now know.
