I totally respect Annabelle as a disability. I love it as a contestant, with love and respect. Nice episodes

Did Richard give them an answer before the round was up with that Madonna reference?

[@glossamano1899]

No, as “Like a Prayer” and “Into the Groove” are three words.

Unfortunate final - I liked that they went back to the first round, but Lise Meitner is Austrian and they did mention that as part of the question. She did live in Britain later on and actually died there, but her biggest contributions to science happened while living in Austria, Germany and Sweden. I thought they were going to put her down for Nobel prize - but I just checked and that wouldn't have won either. Lots of nominations, but unfortunately never won.

Apparently it is a myth that the Groom of the Stool had to wipe the king’s bottom. He generally handed the rags to the king and held the basin of water and towel for the king to wash himself. However as Henry VIII became much older, more obese and sick, the Groom may had to actually wipe the king, in the same way those who have to nurse an older, infirm person these days.

I was relieved to see all the science ones score high, because I did think they all looked quite easy. It's not very often that I know every answer on both boards of a round except one (Malleus)

Does Annabelle have a speech impediment due to a hearing deficit or is it due to her facial differences? It was a bit hard to understand her but as someone with a speech impediment I'm curious as to why. Mine comes from having cerebral palsy.

[@MickisQuagmire]

I think it’s physical. Maybe related to a clef pallet?

[@sydnorth5868]

Definitely a cleft palate, caused when the two plates that form the roof of the mouth don't fuse together during prenatal development.

[@jacquelinebell6201]

I wish they'd stop saying they'll play it "safe"! Its not safe lol.

[@scottdick296]

It's safe if there's someone else with a high score, and they only need a correct answer to win the round.

Justice for Lise Meitner!!
