Well done pretty Ellen!
How lovely that she said she would like Harry Potter as a subject and she won on a HP related question. I would never have thought of the flashback thing. Very smart. Lovely girl.

I don't think anyone's mentioned it yet, but repeats again from the 21st.

Interestingly, the TV mag lists next Tuesday's episode as "Last in series", number 55 of series 15.

I there was me thinking we might get a full month of new episodes, especially as Half-term's not for another few weeks.
I think people are going to start getting fed up with all these repeats again, gets confusing with what is old series and new series. we've only had a few weeks of this "new" series

I keep reading Richard Osman tweeting about how many new shows they have recorded - perhaps they might like to start showing them then. The BBC must have a whole stack of them to show, this current series must be at least a year old as the date code on the credits is 2015.

I'm starting to get fed up too. it wouldn't be so bad if they had the odd old episode. But it seems to me that they have just as many repeats as they do new episodes.

I agree about the showing of repeats it does annoy me maybe they should tag the new episodes as 'new' rather than viewers having to check a listings mag to look for the R denoting Repeat.

Another gripe is the way Alexander will spend more time talking to contestants that happen to be students yet shows very little interest in anyone who is not a student.

I hadn't noticed any bias in that respect.

It could be worse. As he (and Osman) are Oxbridge they could look down on anyone who went to a "lesser" university.

Sad that Lucy from the two ladies in the head to head died recently. She was suffering with breast cancer.

That's sad. Where did you hear that?
