  • Greg thinks that Rosie has low self esteem? That is absolutely not the impression I get from her.

    It’s been so long that I forgot about the hotdog.

    I’m amazed how quickly the detective figured out the trick, and with the quotable logic of “He’s Andy Zaltzman, he knows what velvet is!”

    I’m kinda disappointed that Greg chickened out of double deductions: -3 × 2 = -6 as we learnt in primary school.

    Hot sauce avoidance was genius, although I don’t believe he actually knew the rules allowed it. On the other hand, Andy very was confident on that subject. yeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEES he was.

    Andy’s technique of throw high (and so land vertically) was my first thought.





  • I thought Rosie’s solution to the fish dots was genius, although the pen was obviously superior. Andy definitely got Greg with the fisherman line, you can see his look of fascination until he realises it was just a joke. In fact, Andy’s studio lines were stupendous all episode and I was happy to see him win.

    I liked “You dotted the rim” as a possible episode title - do they ever use lines from Greg or Alex or is it always contestants’ lines?

    Alex’s joy and glee when it turned out that Jack’s only attempt netted the worse possible fish was beautiful to see.

    Mr Poo was more disgusting than I was expecting. The voice combined with the Nutella (I assume) was too visceral.

    It was weird how the studio guest would nod as he said no.






  • This was a great episode.

    I loved the unnecessary snooker costume, and the unnoticed joke about getting into the right frame of mind.

    I had to listen again to hear “your mum’s just like…” as “your mum’s a slag”, but now I can switch, like those pictures that you can see both ways.

    I couldn’t get enough of the robot’s giggles. And Jack’s glee when the robot pointed at its bum when asked to find the plug.

    In the smelly task I was thinking that being sealed up might stop some of the things from reaching maximum stink as the organisms would run out of oxygen. Jack was smart to use the concentrated liquid and not go for a foul smell (although Greg still described it as unpleasant). Andy’s looked gross and I loved him trying to play it cool while contestants metres away were backing away from the smell. What is a goblin fart?





  • My hope is that something like Servo gets good enough to be included, especially if it’s tree-shakable so you can only include a subset of the codebase. I don’t know if that’s a goal for either projects, but it would be cool - the default webviews can be quite lacking so currently you need to use a restricted set of HTML/CSS/JS to guarantee compatibility.
