Next question is, who's playing Edwina Currie?

I think it'll be fine as long as he can do the voice.

That's a great read - thank you. Interesting bit about how Rik Mayall ended up in there.

It keeps on getting better and better.

First horror film I ever watched with my Dad was Theatre of Blood. I'm still quite fond of it, but I think today's 13-year-olds would find it terribly dated. My other suggestion would be Creepshow, I think.

Not really board game related (although I became aware of it via an ad on BGG), but I like the look of this: Spintronics It's from the same guy who did Turing Tumble, and uses a similar idea, in this case using a mechanical analogue to teach electronics.

My first thought was, "Oh, he must have died young", then was gobsmacked to read he was 86.

Don't get me started on games that are 'Kickstarter Only'. That shouldn't even be a thing.

I'm quite intrigued by Stationfall, but given the shipping charges, I think I'd prefer to wait until it's available at retail.

In the last episode of series 1, when Gates shows up at the golf course to arrest Tommy Hunter, you catch a very brief glimpse of Buckells in the car park, carrying a bag of golf clubs. Nothing is ever made of it, as far as I'm aware.

Surely this is all leading into a further series, where the Chief Constable is the target of the investigation? Ted voicing his suspicions about Buckells being promoted way beyond his abilities seems to have given Carmichael pause for thought, and it would seem a logical next step for her to carry the investigation on. If this is the last series, then it's quite possibly the biggest anti-climax in the history of television.

By way of celebration at getting a job after being out of work for four months, I've treated myself to Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion. £40.95. Running total: £59.95

Ardmore is currently £18 in Morrisons, down from £30.

If anyone's wondering why Ian Hubert hasn't posted any lazy tutorials recently, this might go some way towards explaining it:

Just to second SpagMasterSwift's post, Wingspan works really well with two. I think I've played about 15-20 games, and all but two have been with two players.
