Spoilers For Thursday October 29th 2009

Post by James Robinson »

Well, Brian has departed, for a few weeks anyway. So that means no more world exclusives from the Honiton Herald, we hope.

Two newbies in the chairs. Having said that, based on recent form, we'll probably be looking at another new octochamp in the making pretty soon.

Still undecided on Jane Moore in DC. :? Anyone else have an opinion :?:

If she came into my local and asked for a "double entndre" I would give her one.

She grows on you - but only slowly. I like that she seems to be honest and does pull her punches when she feels strongly about some dickhead.

I think she's sound..... to the point of being impressed by some of her stuff but, she writes for the Sun doesn't she? So I'm only getting her telly output.

I was feeling pleased with myself for getting COUSIN until Rachel peed on my bonfire.

'So close', Jeff? For getting to 750 with 3 numbers and then saying you've gone wrong?

I got DICENTRA, INTEGRAND, and PLANISH in the round where you got INHAULS. I also got ISLESMAN in one of the rounds. DC must have been doing a pretty slack job if i could get 4 beaters.

The two contestants both seemed to be struggling with nerves today, which is a shame because it really looked like they weren't enjoying themselves as a result.

Apart from all the beaters mentioned so far, I managed UNICOMS as a Rachel equaller in round 2.

Nah - can't warm to Jane Moore at all. Her anecdotes are dreadfully uninteresting for someone who's had such a long career in journalism.

I think we've become so used to seeing all you extremely clever young people that two 'ordinary' blokes seemed pretty poor by comparison. I'm sure I'd make a tit of myself if I were to go on again now. :oops:

Seen it now. 4OD bailing me out amazingly. Wednesday's episode wasn't there when I did my recap, so I had to keep going in and out of the lounge, just to type all the information out.

GOITRED in round 1.

2nd numbers: (50 - 5) x 3

EDIT: Nice to see someone from Huddersfield win! ;) :) :D

Cool. I've put it in the Countdown Lookalikes topic, which Sue just kindly pointed out to me. ;)
