That numbers game I got 741 the same way xD

You are obviously better than me. I only solved it after watching it back again. It's so easy, but the game puts you under the same kind of pressure as appearing on the programme.

I know it's not in very good taste, but the illness that Richard Whiteley died from- pneumonia- is a nine-letter word which uses all the vowels. Who says Death doesn't have a sense of humour?

[SPINNYFUCK]

I'm afraid I can't beat that. I've only got two from the top and one from the bottom! You should get bonus points for using all the vowels! That would be a tough conundrum though! Don't you just love old Death! He's a barrel of laughs!

The TV show was stressful enough !!! Scrabble is more my pace. Actually PSION Scrabble was bloody great on the Speccy. I spent many nights playing that :)

[SPINNYFUCK]

Yeah, I loved Scrabble on the speccy although the computer opponent would suddenly find a triple word score out of nowhere. Must dig that out again!

One word: C-U-N-T-F-L-A-P-S

Good 'ol Whiteley. Though apparently he loved his sedatives, much like Matthew Smith - a grade "A" Speccy link!
