Why do people go on there and say they are a full time Mum?

No your not you're a bloody unemployed person on the dole! Dont try and white wash it and make it sound like claiming dole money is glamours because it isnt!
You should try bringing up children. Then you'd know that it is certainly a full time job.
I applaud any parent who stays home to raise their children rather than put them into a nursery. You lose out financially but you and the children gain so much more in other ways. I did it and I recommend it.

Michael got six counters in the second round and only managed to amass £350 with them. Why on earth he persevered with drop zone two I'll never know. I think he will make short work of Laura though in the semi final.

He kept passing his turn to the others in the first round and they all dropped quite a few counters.

Michael must the unluckiest contestant ever. He's answered every question but the counters just won't drop for him. Finally!!!

He persevered with drop zone two because, as he said, he was hoping to make the X2 counter drop. His general knowledge is very good. He deserves to win.

I think he's dropping them in the wrong zone hoping to get them in the correct place and he's failing to do it. He should have switched to a different zone.

I'm looking forward to where he drops his counters in the Jackpot round.

Finally someone on the show with a good range of general knowledge, he nearly came unstuck with all the passes in the first round though.

C'mon Michael you are nearly there. You can buy yourself a decent shirt with the winnings. Oooof so close to the edge.

Yes!!! Well done Michael. Well deserved. Good to see someone with good general knowledge winning for a change.

He certainly deserved his win but his tactics were a bit strange throughout the show. His timing was spot on.

Hiya David. LTNS. Oh dear indeed.

Looks like Martyn's got it in the bag today.

I don't think Ben likes Martin. He was a bit of a bad sport when the other guy got his questions right even though the lad had no chance of catching him.

Yet another example of why that double counter needs to go! £1,600 at the end of round 1, FFS!

I agree. Martyn should walk away with it. His timing is spot on.

'It's gonna ride...'

Of course it is, you daft woman! Stop dropping them at the wrong time! Even the jackpot is riding. Isn't that enough of a clue?

It's like she has to mention the word 'ride' every sentence!

The counter is right over the edge. Surely it's going to drop.

That was hilarious. The counter didn't even reach the star counter.

I only switched on at the start of the final round. After a couple of minutes I thought if Sarah was the best of the original four the others must have been pretty poor.

However, despite her atrocious timing and the number of riders she got she still, somehow, managed to win the Jackpot. If I was her I would spend some of the winnings on buying a few lottery tickets. It only goes to prove however bad you play the game you can still win.
