Damian Cook. He's champion.
Alistiar Baker. He's not champion. But he is from Dudswell in Hertfordshire and he is a meek and mild 18 year old.
New guest for the week is Anna Raeburn whose surname is almost the name of a tasy red apple variety. I didn't know who she was but apparently she is famous as an 'agony aunt'.
Enjoy the show.

DC: WEIGHS (6)
OT: HOAGIES (7)

Score: 61–83 (max 109)

Score: 71–103 (max 129)
A century for Alistair. Woop woop! Very good stuff. A century and a nine in his first game, he is clearly happy with himself. For Damian, well he got his teapot and won a couple of games, everyone's a winner really (apart from Damian because he just lost).
