Re: Spoilers for Wed 17 June 2009 [Series 60 1st S
Is it that the shot is of the actual board where the conundrum is revealed, and not the template or whatever it is they put on the camera?

Re: Spoilers for Thur 18 June 2009 [Series 60- 2nd
Does Hamish not get anything for making the semi-finals? Finalists always used to get some sort of special memento, (a pen or something IIRC), but Jeff never mentioned anything. Seems a bit harsh that someone making the semis of a series gets nothing more than any random person that won 1 show, even...
