Re: #825 - Nicholas' foot-in-mouth

just while we are on the subject of Nicholas and possible errors.

Usually as we know, the four take turns to start each round. It’s not always exactly symmetrical as they edit a round out here and there. But there was an unusual instance in last week’s show.

here are the rounds and the panellist who started each one...

April showers – Josie

ambience – Sheila

unanswerable questions – Richard

a sporting bet – Paul

the very first telephone – Josie

the best ingredients for breakfast in bed – Sheila

growing tomatoes – Sheila

analysing a joke – Paul

connecting the dots – Josie

yes, Sheila started the “growing tomatoes”round, even though she had started the previous one, and it was Richard’s turn.

There are three possible explanations...

1. they edited out three rounds between the two rounds.

2. they edited in a round from the other recording. Back in the 90s they did this occasionally, but I’m unaware of it being done recently.

3. Nicholas misread his notes.

I reckon the last explanation is the more likely!
