I thought you were a fantastic team, and it was a shame but you lost, but none of the team have any reason to be ashamed with that lost. These things just happen. And the Sheffield match was fantastic!

Thanks for your comment, I'm glad you enjoyed the Sheffield match!

Your icon is original and kinda hypnotic, I really like it. What inspired you to make a custard cream sofa? Also, your collection of Stephen Colbert videos is just brilliant. I love that man:

Reality has a well-known liberal bias

Too right!

Yeah, it was especially exciting as I've applied to both Exeter and Sheffield. My mum asked me afterwards whether it made me favour one or the other - how could it? It was so close!

I must admit I didn't take the photos/think it up myself, I found the series on http://delicatesituations.blogspot.com/ and thought they were just brilliant.

Ah yeah, he's a genius! So annoyed that colbernation.com has blocked viewers from the UK (or at least it had last time I checked).

Hi, just stumbled across this, fascinating read! I thought your performance was great in the first 2 rounds and you really were just unlucky in the third, it's great that you just enjoyed the whole experience and took it with such good grace, I suppose that's what it's all about at the end of the day! Nice to read a measured account after all the hype and hysteria (most of it ill-informed) that surrounded last series and, I think, detracted from it, especially the nasty and incredibly sexist comments made about GT, who was after all just playing the game and playing it well ( ... )

Hey Rachael thanks for commenting! It's great to hear from other contestants, and I'm sure many others will read this comment over time ( ... )
