Thank you all for your kind words! I was so lucky to play such a wonderful and talented player in the final, and certainly lucky to come out on top in an extremely tense game.
Glad you all enjoyed the jumper too!

OBSTINACY was well solved by Harry. Decent but a bit slow! This was because I thought that obstinacy was spelled with an extra N (obstinancy)! Saw obstinacy it after a few seconds, but doubted myself for a while so kept looking. Will teach me to learn to spell. Funnily enough, I made the same mista...

Re: Spoilers for Friday 11th August 2023 (Series 88, Heat 31)
Sam's summarised it very well. I began memorising the cube as soon as Colin chucked it to me, and there wasn't much cut out of the final edit, so I would have been memorising for about a minute or so (making the total time closer to 1:30). It was very cool to showcase blindfolded solving on TV! Espe...

And I want a million euro, but boohoo. We don't always get what we want. This is not comparable. This is much more like posting online that your closeted friend is gay. I don't think anyone would agree that it's a nice thing to do. I'm not saying that revealing your pseudo is equivalent to coming o...
