Spoilers for Friday January 24th 2014 (S70 P15)
As we wrap up the week, Priscilla Munday has found her rhythm, getting three wins and improving each time. Can she get a fourth today? She does face a challenge today in apterite Sam Hodkin. He's made an effort recently to improve, perhaps knowing that this would be coming. Did the effort pay off? Let's see.

What on earth was Sam on about in the 2nd numbers round?

I didn't like the way Sam told Rachel off for short-cutting the writing of his solution.

Called SIMONIZED after five letters had come out. Compelled to boast about this in the spoiler thread.

I was embarrassed watching from home but then I do get embarrassed easily! Rachel was actually ahead of him, however, the challenger did look socially awkward so these things have to be wiped under the carpet....plus it's probably his first time on TV so he was probably nervous.Tony Atkins wrote:I didn't like the way Sam told Rachel off for short-cutting the writing of his solution.
I was impressed with the dictionary corner guest today (first show I've seen in a while)...seemed to know what he was talking about confidently, e.g. the FURCATION conversation.

Not my debut on TV, 1001 back in 2012 was my first appearance in front of the cameras. Nerves were setting in around that numbers round as well. I did apologise to Rachel post-recording, I was just flustered and all.Kirk Bevins wrote:I was embarrassed watching from home but then I do get embarrassed easily!

I was in two minds today as I have been rooting for Priscilla for a while now, and I just wanted it to come down to a crucial! Unlucky Sam - I presume nerves got the better of you, as I managed to beat you from my sofa, something which I don't normally do when I play you.

I thought Rachel was well out of order and I'm glad Sam picked her up on it. When he said "8+7", I don't think he'd given any indication that he wanted it added to the 100+25, however inevitable it may have seemed that this is what he would do eventually.Kirk Bevins wrote:...

Thought there may have been a superlative 9 in the oestriol + D round, but you obviously can't have more saliva running down your face than everyone else does

Was next up on my calculations, just got caught a little off guard by Rachel thinking one move ahead.Clive Brooker wrote:I thought Rachel was well out of order and I'm glad Sam picked her up on it.
