Batch bread, mayo, spinach and chicken (which was cooked with salt, pepper and garlic) 

It was damn tasty

You lost me at mayo.

Hard luck Mam. I'd prob have gone for Sally Rooney so even with rustling an Ace you still did better than I would have rustling nothing at all.

[lorcand1990]

Accio points!

The Reds try to butter me up for extra points with their single scoring fictional doctor

Doctor Who: jluv, leggy, Kol, cj (4)

The other half of the team all ace it, unfortunately. Ari opts for the TV grumpy genius, House, forgetting its a book round. EN chooses a doctor who teams up with a fictional detective, linking the questions, but no points for Dr Watson. Necro goes spooky season with the devious two faced Dr Jeykll. Liz goes full on cannibal with some fava beans and a nice Chianti with the murderous Hannibal Lector.

4 points isn't bad on a sheep, but it's still risky.

They're all getting wiped out, aren't they? 😬

Well it's probably better to have a chance at getting some points than aceing and getting absolutely none!!! Mind games..will the blues think we won't pick Dr Who because it's too obvious 🤔

I was the rustler on this. I can't say what I want to say, because that would spoil the surprise so this will have to do instead.

It's dave versus ari next, and ANOTHER single sided rustle, this is getting silly

davetherave - House (0)

Ok, ye can stop now with the single sided rustles! Seph takes ari's balloon but is no match for that cheeky robot!

E.N. - I, Robot (4)

[Jluv]

Well done @ari101 .
Ha ha @davetherave 😂😂

[Jluv]

Gwan @E.N. !!!!

Finally both sides get a rustle in aaron versus Necro, but they cancel each other out!

aaronjennings - Noddy (2)

Necro - Willy Wonka (2)

Unlucky Seph, that was a very tough one for any rustler to get.

[davetherave]

Ari made the same mistake I did. I completely forgot it was a "book" round. I did think of Doctor Who, but decided nope not a real doctor and was torn between House and Dr Strange. I messed up

[nothing]

Our final round 2 rustle sees Homer take on cj, where he wipes out the Reds points on this question in our 7th of 8 single sided rustles, as cj misses out despite their being a Tolkein question!

Homer J Fong - Dune (2)

Cj Maxx - Lord of the Rings (0)

This is possibly the only time I'll ever manage to do this while rustling, so even though it was only 2 points and it wasn't our team's night I will bask in this triumph.... 

....and apologise to the Blues for peaking too early and inevitably fucking up in future rounds. 

[Leg End Reject]

You're on the red team, liz! 🤣🤣
