After the contestants gave their words in round 12, Jeff appeared to go straight on without consulting DC, but in fact there was a fairly noticeable edit at that point. I suspect that DC offered STIFFIES and it was deemed unseemly for teatime broadcast.

I originally wrote "I suspect DC came up with STIFFIES" but censored myself.

A couple of other DC beaters:

HARLOTS in R4 and

IFFIEST in R12 (where STIFFIES) has been spotted.
