I notice this week there appears to be no 'Mouse Trap' with 'Beat the boys instead'. I wonder if there's any particular reason for it not being shown this week. I'm guessing one of the '[insert value]-list celebs' pulled out at the last moment hence they choose a ninth elf from the audience.

The line up isn't identical every week, some items come and go, like a live musical performance

It was the ultimate this week... Tara Palmer Tomkinson. Mad And you all know how much I like her...! *jokes*

Honestly, surely they'll be running out of Z-lebs soon.

That comment the contestant made at the end, she thanked some guy for sport questions something, did she know this week she was going to be chosen, or did she just count herself lucky?

Sorry i think the drinks kicked in

Possibly as a cheap and quick plug to thank someone on TV.

Saying that, she previously appeared in ITV's cult daytime show Wink 24 Hour Quiz.

The one week I miss it and ITV2 doesn't repeat it. Tell me Hot Shots! on my EPG on Saturday is only temporary...

I wonder if the start of tonight's show indicates an intention to scrap the canteen start. Was interesting to see a split screen with the titles running with a 'live' feed of them running from the pub to studio. I assume it was live though I noticed in the pub the title sequence started a second or so before we saw it start, though that might be due to technical 'stuff'.

Nice appearance of celebrities saying how they loved Dec's eggs. Then the show interupted by an ITV newsflash with Mark Austin. saying Dec's eggs were made on the cheap.. let's just say they made use of 'fart effects'.

They missed a trick there by not slipping in an 'eggy pump' or two Wink

How did Dec win the series, I'll never know but he was the best in tonight's challenge.

Also notice they didn't give out any competition or website information about being on the show. So please don't tell me it was the last ever series!

I'm sure they'd have mentioned it if it was - and they did say see you soon for more SNT, rather than just a general "see you soon" as in not here, but elsewhere.

I hope they don't scrap the canteen, and the start was great with the Pub Dash. Where do they normally do the Canteen beginning?? is that in a seperate studio, Pre recorded, becuase hey cat dismantle it in an space of 20 or so seconds!!

With the early Title sequence in the pub. Was it a direct link from TLS, becuase if it was, presumably, they don't have to send the signal to a sat, which would explain why they saw it first, if you understand what i mean

Easier to just play a VT at the pub.
