Haven't seen it for about 30 years.

I bet Tim Vine's not happy about not getting centre square

One of the contestants last night was a 23 year old girl from Essex and, if I may say, somewhat stereotypical but she was a very attractive, sweet girl.

She did quite well. The final challenge was to name nine countries beginning with the letter 'C'. I think she got five or six.

Quite tough, I thought, especially under pressure. (She couldn't have Cyprus because it was an example in the question.)

Couple of weeks back they had Shakespeare plays, which was hardly original as that question was used the last time the series was on in the 1990's

I think I'd have struggled to get six countries. Probably would have done better with the plays.

Even now I can only think of eight: Canada, China, Costa Rica, Czech Rep, Cambodia, Croatia, Columbia, Central African Rep

Actually, I thought of Chad last night but not within the time frame.

That's 10 plus Cyprus. Can't be many more?

The most mysterious thing last night was why that big lanky talentless **** was in the middle box. Forgotten his name.

Yeah, I thought that.

I guess he's more of a household name than the others (although not in the KM household). (Vernon Kaye)

Yeh, that's him, thanks. Another amazing fact is that he used to be a model.

I didn't understand 321 at all.

Nobody could. A final clue could strongly imply a long haul holiday, a car or a new fitted kitchen and they end up winning the bin.
