Spoilers For Monday March 26th 2012

[James Robinson]

So, we've now reached the half-century in terms of preliminaries for this series, and we're still no nearer knowing who will be in the series final really, with the obvious exceptions of Jack and Peter.

Our reigning champion is 2-time champion, Mick O'Brien, whose average score is 81, thanks to his scores of 81 & 81. Will he win with a score of 81 today

In DC this week, we have our first newbie of the Nick Hewer era, is the former ITN and GMTV newsreader and journalist, Fiona Armstrong, who rather interestingly is also known, by marriage, as Lady MacGregor of MacGregor.

Join Graeme for his recap later.

Another way:
8 × (7 × 6 - 1) - 6 = 322

[John Garcia]

I can't remember if DC said TRADUCE or TRADUCER for R13. If they said TRADUCE, then they could have had TRADUCER for 8.

[Jack Worsley]

RELLENO in round 4, ESCAPISM in round 6, UNDERSEA in round 9 and PTOMAINE in round 12.

[Tony Atkins]

That had the feel, through my own experience, of being a 10:00 am recording, after the excitement of winning two the day before. Alt first numbers ((9+3-4)x7x10)+25=585.

That would explain my poor performance too

No, they had TRADUCE, and in R3, they had ENROLL, when ENROLLER was there. Plenty of forgetting to add stuff today.

Wendy could also have taken away the 10 in the 1st numbers, to get 2 more points, but that wasn't as critical as Mick's miss at the end there.............

DAINTIER in round 2, TOWLINES in round 8 and OSTERIA in round 11.

2nd Numbers Alt.: (100 + ((3 x 10) / 2)) x (10 - 6) = 460

Anyone else notice the slight error during Wendy's conundrum guess, bar the obvious of course

Yep, it was a 10 o'clock start on the 21st of Feb.

So just like my third show, a 10:00 start after a 21:00 finish the night before. It's a killer - especially to those grey cells that do maths. BTW another way of doing the middle numbers was (100 - ((10+2-3)x6))x10.
