Wednesday, 20th February, Spoilers

[David O'Donnell]

meh!

[Conor]

PETALINE.

[Mike Brailsford]

Is TEASHOPS 1 or 2 words ?

[Craig Beevers]

Electronic list says no to TEASHOP(S).

PESETAS was there tho.

[David O'Donnell]

DOGGEREL was there in one round, I think it has come up recently.

[David O'Donnell]

PETALINE.

PETALINE is well worth remembering, didn't spot this one because I have never heard of it.

[Joseph Bolas]

QUINOA

[Conor]

EPISTERNA as an alternative.

[Matthew Green]

Carol should have spotted QUINOA- she preaches it in her book. Plus UNTOLD in the same round.

[JimBentley]

ALIQUOT in the QUINOA round. I also got DOGGEREL today and have had quite a few DC-beaters the last few days, maybe they've been going easy. (Oh, I should mention that I still miss loads of obvious stuff, but DC are generally more consistent than I am).

[JasonCullen]

SURGEON in round 2, MOISTURE in round 11 and I think PASTOSE is ok for 7 in round 7.

[Joe Denniss]

For the ANIMATE round, is MANICATE in?

[Mary Grylls]

I think QUINTAL was there in the QUINOA round.

[Karen Pearson]

POSHEST in round 6 or 7?

[Jon Corby]

For the ANIMATE round, is MANICATE in?

No mate, 7 was the max in that round. There was also PIXELATE in round 1.

Big thumbs up to John Inverdale in the corner as well, I thought he slotted in superbly

Nice show all round today actually.

[Adam Porter]

Big thumbs up to John Inverdale in the corner as well, I thought he slotted in superbly

He's an excellent broadcaster, and would make a great replacement for Des.

[Martin Smith]

John was probably the best first-timer they've had for ages, highlighted by a great anecdote about his horse misfortune. He obviously knew the show's format and style.

[David O'Donnell]

Have to jump on board the John Inverdale bandwagon, he comes across very well ... I did wonder if he may actually be a fan of the show.
