    Sorry missed the show, as Mrs Mr has forced the family to watch "still no news happening, live from Downing Street, Cleggs House, Dave's Taxi" since Thursday.

    You had a nasty set of Qs for general knowledge, Oxy.

    Never mind Oxy. That Andrew Lloyd-Webber said some nice things about you.

    You wouldn't catch any of us stupid people getting knocked out in the second round because we wouldn't have got that far, or even bothered in the first place. Ha! That'll teach you that you're more stupid for being cleverer!

    (Is that the sort of thing you are after Oxy? Well done anyway).

    I watched it a second time and did really well. Even got most of the specialist questions right, which surprised me. Worth considering next time.
    I think the old cliche 'there are no losers, only winners' really does apply....oh, and 'it's the taking part that counts' is relevant....and 'there are more questions than answers'....and....

    They actually changed the date FOUR times - 7 May was the original one, then they wrote saying it was 2 April, then they wrote saying that that was a mistake, THEN they changed it to 16 April, THEN they rang me in India on 15 April to say it had gone back to 7 May because some off-colour political remark was made that they didn't want going out before the election, though I'm b*ggered if I can see what it was. This is where our licence fee goes, are you listening Mr Cameron?

    I might have scraped through with the previous set of GK questions, as I got 13 on that. But there you go. And Humphrys is a miserable sod, who doesn't even bother to say hello. On a positive note, Rachel Riley did come out of her dressing room in a salmon pink miniskirt, smiled and wish us good luck, so it wasn't a complete waste of a day

    Do you want the quick one-line put down or the full biting diatribe?

    Perhaps one of the specialised subjects was "Smarmy c*nts in office 1979-2010 inclusive" and a researcher spotted it at the last minute.

    Incidentally , me and her indoors were wondering what it was you said when you returned to your seat because it looked for all the world like a mini-rant, perhaps some expletives aimed at Humphrys along the lines of "I actually did know the Latin name for 'pivot' you abysmal grey-haired sack of piss."

    Anyway , bad luck . The shrew-faced woman will probably win it, her or one of the kiddie-fiddlers.

    I had the following conversation during your appearance:

    Me: Ooh look, I know him.

    Other people in the house: Do you really?

    Me: Well he, you know, writes for Newsbiscuit.

    Other people, slightly dismayed: Oh. Have you met him?

    Me: No, but I have read his stuff and some of it is very good.

    Other people: So basically you know him as well as you know Dickens or shakespeare.

    Me: Yes! How did you know?

    I didn't see this round, but had an almost identical conversation with my son while watching Oxy's first round.

    Move over Jeni, you're blocking the view of the screen and some of us are trying to lech at Rachel.. eh, I mean concentrate on whatever it is she is saying. I hear that Oxy almost had a stroke when he saw her, but he couldn't quite reach.

    Is Rachel Riley that old trout who was sat next to Oxy in the second round?
    Does anybody wipe the seat before you have to sit in it?
    I would piss myself.

    In the words of old Mr Grace 'you've done very well'.

    I think your big mistake was a failure to wear an anorak as large as the winner
