I've only just caught up with this. I was genuinely gutted when I saw "C1 buzzed in ... correctly". Great performance Phil, very unlucky. Maybe you should ask to reapply? I'm sure they still let people do that.

Easy targets There are 202 targets which can be generated with any pair. The majority of these are, presumably, made with just the 4 large, although I'll leave it to someone else to fish through and delete those. Here's the full list: [blah blah blah] 32 of those targets can be achieved with just t...

I am not a football fan, but can I ask a trivial question. I notice that when a winning team celebrates these days they tend to bounce up and down on the spot. When did this start? Who started it, and does it have a particular significance? Thanks. I think it originated in the World Trampolining Ch...

I'm going to have to temporarily retire from doing the Monday recaps. I'm about 2 weeks behind on programmes and I keep forgetting. If anyone else could take up the position (starting with Monday 12th April which I haven't done yet) I would be very grateful.

Kai Laddiman

The results are in! I'm gonna say a huge thank you to the 19 people who entered, and I think I'll do this again sometime!

Could there be a scoring system called Void scoring? It would get rid of any words you type in a round that aren't valid.

To tell an old story for a new audience, the 2 - 9 letter words were originally typed out manually by Jim. Corby then produced a new list based on scraping Oxford Online in some baroque way. The two lists were then merged and compared, with discrepancies hammered out by hand. Jim and I have maintai...

My understanding was that it is going to be Friday's show next week in which Des is making a visit as DC guest, rather than Tuesday's show. But then of course I could easily be wrong. The 5000th, featuring Des Lynam in DC, will be shown on Friday March 26th. Episode 5003 according to the wiki :P
