Interesting how both 7-time winners lost on the 3rd and 3rd to last heats of the series.

Can Graham get to Octochampdom just 5 days before the finals?

Can Graham get another win to secure his place in the finals?

Ronan M Higginson

Good to see a battle between 2 players who originally lost to series champions on crucials. Unlucky Adam, but still got the finals to go. Can Graham stop a rematch between me and Jonathan happening?

The finals run from 22-23 and 26-30 June. Adam Dexter is up next very soon so this series is really going to shape up over the next 4 weeks. Wiki episode table actually has the final on Thursday the 29th, can anyone confirm or know why it's not Friday? (Oh yeah. Also nice job Ronan on your enormous...

Ronan M Higginson

As another minor record, I think 286 is the highest anybody's ever scored in two consecutive games. May have to set Graeme on that one. By my reckoning only Zarte Siempre (150+137) and Luke Boynton (147+141) have ever scored more in two non -consecutive games Don't forget (152+143) from Elliott Mel...

Ronan M Higginson

Another great game from Ronan, where the record looked on for a bit, puts him on the cusp of joining the 1000-club. According to the wiki, he's on 919 so just 81 points in his final game would do it. But with Elliott's record standing at 1061, he'd still need 142 to equal it. Just 113 to match Luke...

(Edit 2 months later because I didn't want to say anything at the time) Philip, the fact that all you could think to say was the fact that YOU got a max game watching at home shows just how arrogant and disrespectful you are. I got only the 13th in the show's history, under studio pressure and all. ...

I thought Rachel was a bit off saying the next contestant would be another sacrificial lamb. They were presumably there listening to that. Should have chose to cut that bit out rather than Martin doing some magic for us! Ooh that would have been fun. Well done by the way. Back on track for the 1000...

Oh my goodness, Ronan's simply too fast on the buzzer thar I have no time to even think about the conundrums even though those are ones I can solve! He's a superhuman at this rate...damn... Halfway to becoming an Octochamp. I hope he can really end a close to four-month drought soon! Who knows, he ...

Felt quite sorry for Greg there. Thought he seemed quite nervous but was nice enough on and off screen.

Ronan M Higginson

Nice one Ronan MANDIBLE & 54x15 +3 for 693 Absolutely wonderful game, Ronan. Pulled in some great words and honestly a very impressive score despite a disallowed word. Also the way Rachel says bagels is gonna haunt me, I'm sorry I've just never heard anyone say it like that. Great debut Ronan, ...

Has to be.

Interested to know if there's ever been any contestants born in the 19th century as well.

Good run from Dave. Hopefully he makes the finals. Same for Gavin if he carries on playing like today.

Happy with that
I'm not. I don't know how you can just lop off another 10 seconds. I thought to get it under a minute, you were just chipping away at those last bits of time!

Certainly felt like I was doing it for longer than I actually was.

Just got a 1:09 now, targeting under 1:00, will probably take a good few goes.

Brilliant stuff. The host could at least wear a suit for the occasion. And why is the guest wearing… a dressing down?! Is a 'dressing down' a gown made from duck feathers? And why should the host wear a suit when it isn't 1980 any more? Really Philip. Exactly. I wish you would stop complaining, the ...
