Umm, not sure. I've got a video of it somewhere but will have to set up my semi-broken video recorder to find out - will get back to you ASAP.

Don't want to tread on any toes, but Round 12 was TIPRUIESD and the conundrum time was 2 seconds. I'll leave the TTT's to Jim.

LOLZ, missed IDOLATER and TAILORED twice.
