Spoilers For Tuesday March 1st 2011

Post by James Robinson »

So, we enter the third month, safe in the knowledge that we now have 3 octochamps crowned. Never mind that Ned got over 200 fewer points than Edward or Adam, he still got his 8 wins, so that's that.

So, 2 new challengers today, 1 of whom we had a quick glance of yesterday, as she solved yesterday's conundrum.

As Ryan is on an extended spell off here for the time being, I'll be doing today's, tomorrow's and Thursday's recaps.

Who says good things don't come in THREES :?: ;) :) :D ;) :) :D ;) :) :D

I love the day after the crowning of an octochamp. You don't really have any idea of who is likely to be better, and I find that it makes for a really exciting contest. This is close so far. Is it wrong that I want to hug Nick?

OMG. That was one of the best episodes I've seen in a long time. Was gonna sit upstairs and do work like a loser, but I'm so glad I came down to watch it. Both contestants were ace. It would've been nice to have a female champ for the fisrt time since Denise Smith had her third and final victory on December 6th. Oh well.

What a superb game of Countdown! It was on the Raghd edge all the way through (couldn't resist the pun); nice comeback from Nick. A thoroughly enjoyable contest with some quality spots from both contestants. Also two very likeable personalities.
Mike Brown: "Round 12: T N R S A E I G U

C1: SIGNATURE (18) ["9; not written down"]
C2: SEATING (7)
Score: 108–16 (max 113)

Another niner for Adam and yet another century. Well done, that man."

Yes. I would rather embrace the lovely Raghd.
Not that I'm a homophobe; just a dirty old man. :D
