Anyone planning to attend the finals recording in October? Also does anyone know what is going on on 24th October?

Hey Jayne,

I believe October 24 will now be the start of Series 76, with the Series 75 finals being recorded on October 11/12.

Unfortunately, I won't be there... :(

Thanks but I was intrigued because my email for 24th October states the first session of the day as quarter finals and the last session of the day as semis and final.
