Torva Messor 252 Posted July 24, 2023 George Alagiah was my original #5 placement. Shannen Doherty now rises from the sub bench to #5. Centenarian John Allman Hemingway, Irish pilot for the RAF in WW2, now dodders onto the substitute bench. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lafaucheuse 3,659 Posted July 26, 2023 Dead Body and No Soul ! Bennett is a hit for Khthonia, Toast and Captain Hemlock. @Charles De Gaulle you could have won a point but I asked for 3 subs and you never provided it so I'll be forced to remove you from the game… @Khthonia : James Whale in and Nolan on the sub bench @Toast : Linda Nolan in and Patrick Murray as sub 3 @Captain Hemlock : Ruth Buzzi in and Shannen Doherty on sub bench ---------------------------------------------- George Al-ARGH-gia! George Alagiah is a hit for a bunch here including Captain Hemlock, Yorkshire Banker, theoldlady, wannamaker, WEP, gcreptile, Handrejka, Toast, Torva Messor and Book (pfiou…). Not a single miss, one point each ! @Captain Hemlock : Roberta Flack in and Yevgeny Prigozhin as sub 3 @YorkshireBanker : Bobb Seith in and you still have another sub to choose @theoldlady : James Whale in and another Nolan sub here @wannamaker : Michael Tilson Thomas in and Julie Goodyear on the waiting list @WEP : Tore Aleksandersen in and Jimmy Carter as sub 3 (never too late ?) @gcreptile : Pope Francis in (already ? Think you just chose him one month ago, good job !) and still a sub to choose @Handrejka : Jonnie Irwin in and Rantzen as sub 3 @Toast : Carter in (it really is never too late with him !) and Attenborough as sub 3 @Torva Messor : Doherty in and Hemingway as sub 3 @Book : Carter in (as for Toast, good job !) and Doherty on the waiting list I think I didn't forget anyone Book takes the lead again with one point more than perhaps. Wannamaker just behind with 14 points. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
