Scores updated. The 2 teams at the bottom of the table are unfortunately both playing with only two members. Well done for carrying on.
Close battle for 2nd at the moment.

Yay ... I see a crowd of rioters coming over the horizon pushing their shopping trolleys and waving their handbags... no wait, it's the Goodies dressed as little old ladies.

Scores updated. The Rioters are looking fairly secure up the top with lots of jostlings for the minor placings. Could still be a late upset though.

I don't appear to have received the last round of questions? I was on early yesterday, but still havent received them, unless I did them in my sleep after a day traipsing round the natural history museum (small person was suitably scared by the T-Rex).

They had some team members come and go which certainly didn't make it easy for them.
