Spoilers for Monday 2 October 2017 (Series 77, Prelim 64)

[Johnny Canuck]

If Jon was impersonating The Donald in the GOURAMI round, he could have thrown in a line or two about strengthening the Cuban EMBARGO.

[Ray Wilding]

Got the 3rd numbers during the break ((50-2)*5+25+3)*3

[Zubair Patel]

The challenger's Andy Murray impersonation was pretty good too.

[L'oisleatch McGraw]

Little bit of inside info about this game... Jacob was a last minute stand-in player. Someone by the name of Emily (not Cox! ) got cold feet and pulled out on the day. So fair play to him for stepping up.

Watching yourself back on TV is a bit cringey... but my first real face-palm moment came in this game. I fluffed the final numbers game, then had an awkward exchange with Rachel where I ended up saying "I need to be less dumb"... If I could turn back time and erase that entire exchange (and particularly that comment) I would.

[Mark Kudlowski]

2nd numbers alt: ((9 + 7) x 8) + 100

What about your pronunciation of GIAOUR where you basically just made a noise?

That was the realisation of a long held fantasy!
Or possibly a genuine inability to pronounce it...?
One of those two.

When Jacob was being introduced he told us what he was going to be doing next week. I expected Nick to ask what would happen if he was still playing. I guess not asking makes more sense now.
