Spoilers For Monday November 1st 2010

Post by James Robinson »

Wahey :!: :D A new week, new month, new time zone (well, reverted back to the old one), but the same old champion, as Steve Turvey begins this week as the 2 times champion.

His challenger is also a 2 times champion, albeit it from 14 years ago, our very own Marcus Hares, who won 2 shows in Series 32, back in 1996. http://wiki.apterous.org/Marcus_Hares 8-)

Back in DC for his 2nd stint is former world snooker champion, John Parrott.

So, will Marcus make Steve go topsy-Turvey, or will Steve make it a case of Hares today, gone tomorrow for Marcus.

Ryan will be around with the recap later.

Well played Marcus - good game.

However, I feel I must query whether Damian has changed his policy again? I'm pretty sure this is the 2nd time this series a previous winner has been allowed to compete again.
I'm not sure I can quite understand the logic in allowing previous winners to add to their teapot collection, whereas "losers" (for want of a better word) are banned from having a 2nd bite at the cherry.

I never won a teapot the first time around - it was 14 years ago, 2 years before the teapot thing
