Spoilers for Thursday March 22nd 2012 (Series 66 Prelim 48)

Post by Jordan F »

Raj. C. got another win yesterday in a...what I can best describe as promising but also inconsistent manner, and is going for his third today. Can he pull it off? Today's episode is going to be the first this week I might be able to see live, so there is where I'll finally have my opinions on Martin Lewis.

Join James for the recap later, which I don't need to see live to know it'll be detailed, filled with smilies, and entertaining.

When Susie disallowed Raj's word, had he actually said LIGATED? I wasn't listening properly though.

Damian blatantly wants Bayfield to apply for the show.

Enjoyed that, a nice high-scoring show even though too many (over 0) of the rounds were 3 vowels and 6 consonants.
About 130 points up for grabs if you scored in every round.
No clever stuff to add from me.

Didn't see this..... yet I saw the possibility for BANDEROLE or BANDOLIER if he went vowel. Right. Lol.

Fairly good game today, with a decent performance by the challenger. I played much better than the past couple of days and managed 123 points, despite missing GENDARMES.

DENTINAL in round 3 and SAUTOIR in round 8.

Oh yeah I didn't consider the 9 as being +10 points on what I had, just considered each of my misses as like a point lol

It was interesting to see Rachel asking Raj if he'd written his numbers method down before allowing him to correct himself, wonder if the crew had a discussion similar to the one here following Michael's shambolic numbers game last week? Or has this happened before?

I thought exactly the same. I don't recall it happening before. Strange that neither had said that their solution was not written down. But not as strange as neither of them being able to make 16 out of 2 5 7 6 10.

Finally 4od uploaded today: had MORAINES as a lesser word in the HARMONISE/HARMONIES round, and LEOTARD in the
BLOATED/BANDEROL round. I have seen before a contestant asked if what he said was different to what he had written down, but that player also had it incorrect and that bit got editted out. Alt second numbers ((4+4)x(100-9+6))-7.

Have I missed something? The conundrum scramble was ENTERMATT. I don't know what you're on about, to be honest.
