HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR COUNTDOWN, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!

Yes, our favourite show, as well as our favourite channel, are 33 years old today. (Although of course, it's not technically a third of a century old for another 4 months of course, on 2 March 2016. )

Anyway, our current champion is Hazel Drury, who won her 2nd show on Friday, and if she can win all week, then that should be enough for her to qualify for the finals, which incidentally are being recorded this week.

Michael Whitehall remains in DC until Wednesday, before a new guest in the actress, Michelle Collins, arrives on Thursday.

Join Andy for the recap later.

Interesting. Normally they just put the guest in a chair.

..... for those watching live, we've been moved to 3.10pm.

Did DC get the 9 in Round 1? Streaming stopped for a while.

Last numbers 6(100+50) - 5(4+3)

At least one beater available today - but I will leave it for Mr R or others to find.

Well, I was thinking ACEDIAS possibly in round 10, which I think is good......

1st Numbers Alt.: ((25 x 3) - 9) x 8 = 528
4th Numbers Alt.: (((50 - 6) x 4) - 3) x 5 = 865

Not valid on apterous - interesting one because the entry for ACEDIA doesn't specify that it's a mass noun, but it's given as another term for ACCIDIE, which is listed as a mass noun.
