Spoilers for Thursday July 11th 2013 (Series 69 Prelim 9)

Post by Jordan F »

June Glasspell had a nice comeback yesterday and is up to 3 wins. We're not sure how close she is overall to Steve Grimble, but a win will definitely put her ahead of him. Can she do it?

James is appparently recording a show according to his Facebook, so I'm not sure if he's still recapping later or not. Either way, join somebody.

Not sure that show was worth waiting an extra 20 mins for.... several alts not found on the show
(including for the 9) and alts to Jack's beater. Another way to 171 is (50-5)x4-9.

I'm back, luckily an early finish at recording, means an earlier recap for all you lovely people. ;) :) :D

The recording doesn't seem to have dented my brain, as I only just missed out on a max game, by not getting the last numbers game. :(

ISOPTERAN in round 2, HAYRIDE/HYDRIAE in round 4, BRIDOONS in round 11 and TONNEAU in round 13.

1st Numbers Alt.: ((75 + 3) x (7 + 2)) - (4 - 3) = 701

This didn't record on my SKY PLUS yesterday (IE Thursday), any reason?

This has NEVER happened, so I assumed it had been cancelled, similar but not the same as recent recordings?

Can anyone help please?

Maybe because it was shown at 3.30? Just a thought. Sky+HD seems to cope ok with changes like that, maybe Sky+ doesn't.

Did anyone else notice the anomaly with the last numbers?

Methinks someone had a little cheat.

Yes Jessica, home from College, distinctly heard challenger say 75+7+8+5+4 (not in that order) but when he repeated it while Rachel was writing it down he didn't include the five!!

4onDemand, but the adverts are annoying, just seen the numbers game questioned above, I'm not sure he was cheating; think he just made an error mentioning the 5 in the first place... He'd already lost when they both declared 940, so not much point in cheating on national TV, when you've already lost?
