Now what makes you wasters think you can do the biz?

In all seriousness, good luck getting on. I hope you all face each other... now that would be worth watching.

tbh i'll never get round to applying, i'm far too lazy. still have a mate nagging me to do supermarket sweep with her (which would be great fun; say "yes, dale"). but wordgames can be fun too, personally i'd find the pseudo xword clues the hardest, like Fotherz, i'm used to something a bit more sophisticated.

but studio lights and comfort zones do have an impact: Fotherz is better than his winning performance suggested. and taller and a bit heavier (sorry).

£2750. Well done indeed Fotherz. In a former life I too had some TV success which reaped financial gain for basically knowing more stuff than other people.

Now if Istenem can just play 5500 games of Word Crap he might be able to catch you up in winnings.

Runway. With Richard Madeley before he started nicking stuff.

"oh I forgot about them"

"Ah, now..." [flicks fingers and crosses legs] "well, erm..."

'Runway. With Richard Madeley before he started nicking stuff'.

Should be a guest on Supermarket Sweep where the prospect of free food and drink would mean he'd be careering around the aisles .

Only problem is he'd get bogged down in the drinks section taking all the wine.

I turrned up on Word Play yesterday, and I'm pleased to report that the 100% record from members on this forum has continued. Would certainly recommend going on the show to anybody who's thinking about it.

Unfortunately I was at a wedding so missed the show. Youtubery?

Istenem · Post by **Istenem** » Sat May 23, 2009 11:21 am

you kept that one a bit quiet GGDR, is it vulgar to ask how much the pot was?

No Youtubery available sadly, but a very pleasing £3,300 win. Channel 5 seems to have some sort of iPlayer-like device, but I can't find the show on there. I only have a VHS copy.

*Braggadocio alert*

It was the most ever won on the show, and in the quickest time. Sorted out the final round in just under half the time. I am massively pleased.
