Question for Damian mostly - how many episodes for the new series are currently in the can? When is further filming scheduled, and how to those days look weather-wise for Manchester? Might local contestants have to go first if those in, say, northern Scotland are unable to travel down? I know there's always one standby contestant (usually a local) if somebody can't get there or there's an Octochamp, but will one be enough?

Am I the only one that read the title of this thread as:

"Will the cold snap affect the snow?"

That's probably why you lost to Richard Pay in your one and only game (can't read).

To answer the first question, I believe the first three weeks of series 62 shows were recorded before Christmas. The fourth, fifth and sixth weeks are due to be recorded next week, starting Monday (which is also the day that Chris is recording his BB performance).
