    Hi everyone, Durham Nash here!
    Will avoid spoilers early on, so I’ll firstly thank everyone for the support in the first two rounds - they jangled our nerves and we were so glad to make it where we did.
    Now for the spoilers…
    We had an amazing time, even if it was cut short before we hoped it would be. To get a bird round achieved a lifelong dream - I’ve been a semi-professional birder for years and it’s the culmination of an interest I’ve had since I was 9 - hence my profile picture!
    We all agreed that the questions suited me better than the rest of the team - and that’s just how the game goes sometimes.
    We had a phenomenal time throughout, so thank you all for your support and nice comments (and excellent Twitter correspondence!)
    Good luck to Open, and hopefully you’ll see some of us back on your screens some other time - one for the future maybe!
    Best wishes to all and sundry,
    Durham Nash

    Had a few questions that I can answer because of youtubers (shoutouts to Tom Scott and ElectroBOOM).
    Now, on stalling tactics..
    I think it’s well within the rules, it’s just like trying to run down the clock in football. However, I think it’s better for Amol Rajan to hurry them up significantly faster if he senses time wasting instead of point penalties which some suggest. Hurry them up at four or five seconds, time them out at eight.

    Quite a lot of needless hate towards Open in the comments. I loved their performance. They worked out many answers brilliantly. We do see teams which are ahead stall a bit; that's just part of the game - no point complaining about that. I would say, good tactics and captaincy - especially how she goaded answers out of her teammates!

    Thanks, Cosmic P!
    Well, that was an interesting contest! After a weak start I thought Open was toast but they came screaming back! Durham almost made a comeback but died! However, the overwhelming impression from this match was the rather cunning delaying tactics employed by Open in the last minutes! "Slow down" hand signals to the Captain together with maximized debate followed by completely unnecessary nominating all very effectively reduced the number of questions Durham might have had for a comeback! LOL!

    Hello again! A tale of two halfs, as one team started out well, then were overtaken. And it wasn't a case of fizzeling out, the winning team just really got it going. A good team, but lackluster in science questions. They will go as far as the questions allow them to go. Sad to see the losing team depart, they were very likeable. My best to both teams, and to each individual.

Plus of course the starter may not hint at the topics of the bonus round.
      What l'm finding increasingly is the mid to late 20th century is a subject that l do well on simply for having livrd through it and just remembering it. In which case one oldie would be worth a whole team who e.g. knew the periodic table back to front. But l suppose thats the fun of it.

    Does Amol seem more chilled out in recent episodes (even after he got well), or is it just me? My hypothesis is that he got a lot of positive feedback for the less intense episodes from when he was unwell, and decided to build up the pace over the episode rather than right away.
    May just be confirmation bias from me though, but in any case I like the pacing better this way.
