I dread to think what it will look like afterwards.

Interesting to see STROKE in the first six letters there.

Stephen could have gotten the numbers exactly if he'd took the two off - which would have meant winning by 1 point:
5*25 = 125
125 + 6 - 2 = 129
129*5 = 645
645+9 = 654
5*25 = 125
125 + 6 - 2 = 129
129*5 = 645
645+9 = 654

Riiiiight. Rachel's actually on the show every day in case you hadn't noticed. It's going to get pretty tedious if half the posts on every show's spoiler thread are typed with one hand.Martin Gardner wrote:Well, in a word, yes!Mark Kudlowski wrote:Is it Rachel's ravishing beauty ?Martin Gardner wrote:Can't really blame the male contestant for having trouble concentrating.

I had HYALINES for a beater in the LESBIAN round. So that's it - just 12 consecutive games of a Yorkie in the chair. Oh well.

Nooooo. The shyest person in the world has been knocked out

Well said. Anyone who disses Rachel gets shot down in a flash, those who can't see past her looks and need to keep reminding us should get the same treatment.Phil Reynolds wrote:Riiiiight.

Alternative last numbers game:
9 x 25 = 225 - 5 = 220 x (5 -2) = 660 - 6 = 654
9 x 25 = 225 - 5 = 220 x (5 -2) = 660 - 6 = 654

Yes but that dress was particularly enticing. Maybe your equivalent of Linford Christie's sprinting shorts?Phil Reynolds wrote:Riiiiight.

Do you think Rachel had Jon "Vidcapper" Corby in mind when she made a real effort not to look at the camera whilst posing next to the word lesbian?Kirk Bevins wrote:I had HYALINES for a beater in the LESBIAN round.
