3,2,2,1 last night and a 5 back up - Above Suspicion was above my expectations last night, Shameless well down on 2011, close with Jasper Carrot, had +1 been included for Coppers I think I would have been bang on. When Paddy Met Sally as expected. Not sure I have been bottom before - the only way is upwards, let us see how things go tonight.

Last night was another one of those frustrating "close but no cigar" nights for me. I was 0.1, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.3 away from the correct values.

Still 9th place is better than I expected what with all the 5ers and 10ers being dished out like candy.

I'm quite happy with third place seeing as I haven't played for ages

though no doubt I'll slip harshly down the leaderboard as the week progresses!

Dancc, is that range right for a BBC 2 show?
