Yes Dean, I did vote for Peter Jones in the final round (to me he personifies the game), although I was pleased to see how close the final score was.

I've updated the summary of the results and added it to the files section, as you suggested. I thought I'd replace the photo of Nicholas with one of Peter but good ones are hard to find on Google Images. Plenty of that OTHER Peter Jones (the excrescence from Dragon's Den) but few of the genial old master himself.

In case you've not seen it, here's the link to an obituary for Peter written by Douglas Adams in 2000: http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A297920
"He had the air of a bank manager who had been fired for being too nice to people".
