The bright shirt-wearing Andrew Barrett returns for his 7th game. Will he finally attain a century score?

Looks like we had a technical failure of some sort, uh oh...

Unfortunately, a technical problem at Channel 4 has halted the programme during part 2.

We're back on, they just restarted from after the first Teatime Teaser...looks like we're going to end late today

Good decision to restart the show from the beginning of part 2 rather than at the point when transmission was interrupted.

25 points behind going into the last "half" and going on to win. Must be fairly rare. Good game.

According to my recently-refreshed wiki-derived database, the last time a contestant was 25 or more points behind after R9 and went on to win was in 2014: https://wiki.apterous.org/Episode_5896Gavin Chipper wrote: ↑Tue Feb 14, 2023 3:59 pm 25 points behind going into the last "half" and going on to win.

Not sure I understand the reason for Ann's 0 seconds conundrum solve ( "the amount the clock moved" ). Can someone explain please?

When people record conundrum times in recaps or on the wiki I don't think anyone puts a stopwatch on it. They go by how much the clock hand has moved round (or how much the face is lit up?) and that might be slightly out of sync with the amount of time the actual conundrum has been on display.samir pilica wrote: ↑Wed Feb 15, 2023 5:38 am Not sure I understand the reason for Ann's 0 seconds conundrum solve ( "the amount the clock moved" ).

As I recall, they'd recently built a new clock, which had a few teething problems. Occasionally the music would start but the clock hand wouldn't. This happened here, but the buzz was so soon after the music started that nobody noticed the hand hadn't moved.samir pilica wrote: ↑Wed Feb 15, 2023 5:38 am Not sure I understand the reason for Ann's 0 seconds conundrum solve ( "the amount the clock moved" ).

Cheers, Gavin and Graeme.

Noticed recently the goodie bag isn’t mentioned anymore, giving an impression it’s been scrapped.
Update: reliably informed they are still given.
