Round 15: L E X Y B A T I C
C1 buzzes on 4 seconds to say EXACTIBLY which is incorrect.
C2 buzzes on 28 seconds to say EXCITABLY which is correct.
Score: 96–84 (max 121)
Jimmy's excitable finger buzzes wrongly again, but he wins still. Tony put up a very good fight, though; on another day he could have got a teapot.
Once again, sorry for the mix-up, my memory sucks, etc.
Recap brought to you by Callum Laddiman. Oh no, wait, this is my brother's account, isn't it? So I'll say it was Kai.
