And times up, and we have some great answering there. Here are the solutions provided…

Jacko
(8+3)*75=825
(5*4)+825=845
845-2=843

chris stephens
(75-5)x(8+4)+3= 843!

GalaxyShield
75x11=825 + 8 + 5 + 3 = 843

The Plumber
(75 x (8 + 3)) + (2 x (5 + 4)) or 825 + 18 = 843

Mat Kelley
(8+3) * 75 = 825
825+(5*4) = 845
845-2=843

Alcra
(8 + 3) * 75 = 825
(5+4) * 2 = 18
825 + 18 = 843

Marcusr
75+2= 77
8+3 = 11
77*11= 847
847 - 4 = 843

KingThrone
(75x(8+3)+(5x4)-2)
=(75x11)+18
=825+18
=843

Mayharm
((75 + 5 + 4) x (8 + 2)) + 3

Starrman
8 + 3 = 11
11 X 75 = 825
4 x 5 = 20
20 - 2 = 18
18 + 825 = 843

Unfortunately, GalaxyShields entry can’t be allowed as he uses the 8 and the 3 twice (or else just introduces an 11). *Carol looks sympathetic.* *Audience awwwwws*

So now the leaderboard for game 4 looks like this…

The Plumber 25
Mayharm 18
Starrman 18
Alcra 18
Chris 17
Marcusr 17
Jacko 17
demonseed 15
Mat 10
KingThrone 10
Favs 8
Freddie 7
GalaxyShield 7
wucky3 7

Game 4, Round 4 coming up straight after this commercial break, but before we go to commercial, I have this excellent joke sent into me by Earl E. Bird.

RW Joke
***
A Russian man and his wife are walking along a road. All of a sudden something drips on the man. “That’s got to be rain” said the man. “No dear” replied his wife. “It’s definitely snow”. The couple decides to ask Rudolph the Communist, as he knows what is going on. “It’s raining,” confirmed Rudolph. The woman tried to say it was definitely snowing but her husband said “Rudolph the red knows rain, dear”.

*Everybody cracks up* *SVW cracks up. Sends numerous letters complaining about communist propoganda on TV. Snarks. Mumbles about chimps*

Back after these.

Welcome back after that short break. And straight over to Carol for Game 4, Round 4, the 3rd letters game…

And the letters are…

*** V P L *Carol chortles* Haha, VPL, Visible Panty Line. I'll just check to see I haven't got it. *Richard laughs and pipes up:* What about cellulite? Have you checked to see if you got that? *Silence* E R P S A G *Richard chuckles* Another thing that Carol has to check for. ***

So to recap:

*** V P L E R P S A G ***

There’s nine in the frame, lets get on with the game.

Oops, I forgot my end of post instructions...

PM me the word. 1 point per letter awarded to the person(s) with the longest word. 18 points awarded for 9 letter words. Dictionaries are allowed. Software of any sort that can be used for solving games isn't.

.......Put your finger on the thing. That’s it. Right, Are you ready? Right. Your time starts now…

Does anybody, who watches the show, feel uncomfortable when Richard insists that a player must put his finger on the button for the conundrum (in a kind of rude way) even though the contestant might be losing by 60 points.

I mean, this person probably has the whole family watching and just wants to get the **** out of dodge.

Is Richard at ease with himself?
