Spoilers for Wednesday September 25th 2013 (S69 P56)

Post by Tony Atkins »

With our Mr Fish retiring until the finals, it's two new players today and also Olympic gold medal winner Katherine Grainger takes over in Dictionary Corner. Is she the tallest female DC guest ever at 5ft11.5 (1.82m)?

How short a memory you have, Tony. Jodie Kidd only just left, and she's 1.85m

Well done, but have you made 872 yet? There at least 2 ways to do it, it seems.
No words beaters today though.

I only got to 875. :( Amazed that Rachel needed extra time to get the last one as 9x5x5x4 seemed to stand out immediately as the base to build on to me.

IDOCRASE (R2), SOFRITO (R12) and ENVENOM (R13) for some equallers.

Thanks! I did
75-9=67; 7+6 = 13; 67 x 13 = 871; 871+1=872

I tried that method but unfortunately 75-9 is 66 not 67.
