David Holmes, Apterite and former World Scrabble Championship entrant, debuts today. This should be a good one.
Funnily enough, the mentioned game show Hive Minds was first broadcast exactly 10 years ago.

AFFORCED in Round 11
Good match, and the better player won. But once again – and there have been quite a few of these this year – another good challenger who I think on a different day could have gone on to been a finalist. Tough draw.

David Holmes had a slow start. Otherwise he could have been the better player.

He did. I still think players should be given a couple of non-broadcast free-for-all warm-up rounds before they play the game for real. The recent double blank in Round 1 from two shows ago justifies this.

Round 8: Don't try RIOTISED in Scrabble
RIOTISE is a noun. DIORITES is valid in Scrabble, but DIORITE is a mass noun for Countdown purposes.
