Youse know what to do.

POMADED, the contestant had POMADE as well.

Great from DC with SHORTCAKE. I got it but only because its an anagram of KRTASHEOC

Heh that's gotta be a bit humiliating when Des gets it.

I did [75 + (9-8)] * 10 = 760, 760 + 50 - 3 = 807.

Well done to Peter (is that his name?) for getting KERFUFFLE and very well done to Des for getting the last numbers. Also DC for getting SHORTCAKE.

I didn't get 807, but I did get 803 which I think the champion would've done this way, if he didn't get stuck ((75 + 50) x (10 - 3)) - (9 x 8)?

I thought KERFUFFLE was pretty easy. Especially if you're a Little Britain viewer.

I have actually never heard of KERFUFFLE before. Also, I not a fan of Little Britain, so for me, at least, it was a hard one

I have a feeling it was probably Damian in the commentary booth that got it, I noticed Des indicated with his hand that it wasn't him that got it, in my opinion.

From what I remember from seeing Susie, POMADE is a mass noun and therefore POMADES is only allowed from the verb POMADE. That's what made me think of it.

Oh and thanks to Countmax, there's a solitary seven from AEIILNNTT, which I knew but didn't get. I'll leave someone else to find it.

ANILINE was there, but I wasn't sure that their dictionary would have it. I would have risked it though.
