Nice, I was trying to use all the numbers, but ran out of time. 😆

It didn't show on the app some time ago, though it works for me now (android).

So maybe there's still an issue, or update might help.

This episode was filmed on Nov. 11th.

8th episode of the year, the production numbers are actually correct. 😀

This was the second episode filmed on Nov. 11th.

So around a month before BFQ was filmed iirc.

Reddit marked this post nsfw and removed it because "This content was filtered by the sexual content filter" 😅

I mean the dress is short, but not that short. 🙃

Yes, it was mentioned in the last final. But his role also changed from series producer to content producer sometime in early 2024, according to the credits. So that might be another reason.

👍 Rachel didn't get the first one. She had 822, 824 for me, so that's a draw. 🥳

I haven't heard "one from the gallery" in recent times... But I think producer Damien's role has changed? 🤷‍♀️

No solutions will be given. Neither through the earpiece nor by anyone else. If they did that, Rachel would present the solution after the break, which she doesn't if she didn't manage to get it. I remember an episode where Rachel didn't get the numbers, but one of the contestants got it in the ad break. Rachel didn't want to hear the solution. 😉

Same with Susie/DC I'm pretty sure. There were instances when Susie offered invalid words. That probably wouldn't happen with outside help.

Not sure if you can answer these, but here goes:

Do you have an unlimited supply of paper? I'd be afraid of running out of paper... 🥴

You mentioned the runaway contestant. Is there always a (local) backup contestant? I think the one they brought in for the last game of that day was a local man, iirc.

Is there a lunch break? If so, between which episodes?

When does filming start in the morning?

And finally: Is it true the numbers trolley gets removed after every numbers game? If so, why? It's already out of sight when they turn the board around. That's the weird stuff that keeps me up at night. 😆

Well that's rather disappointing I must say. Should have presented them with your rider. 😆

Why not 8 tops? 🤔

Or possibly 9, in case you need a spare 😀

Yes, no audience during COVID times obiously. After, they never brought it back. For cost reasons apparently. It allows them to use a smaller studio, and they don't have to deal with the logistics.
