If Jon was impersonating The Donald in the GOURAMI round, he could have thrown in a line or two about strengthening the Cuban EMBARGO.

The challenger's Andy Murray impersonation was pretty good too.

Little bit of inside info about this game... Jacob was a last minute stand-in player. Someone by the name of Emily (not Cox! ;)) got cold feet and pulled out on the day. So fair play to him for stepping up.

Watching yourself back on TV is a bit cringey... but my first real face-palm moment came in this game. I fluffed the final numbers game, then had an awkward exchange with Rachel where I ended up saying "I need to be less dumb"... If I could turn back time and erase that entire exchange (and particularly that comment) I would.

What about your pronunciation of GIAOUR where you basically just made a noise? :lol:

That was the realisation of a long held fantasy!
Or possibly a genuine inability to pronounce it...?
One of those two.

When Jacob was being introduced he told us what he was going to be doing next week. I expected Nick to ask what would happen if he was still playing. I guess not asking makes more sense now.
