00:00:01.610 --> 00:00:12.750
This is Lightly Used with Adam and Karen. Welcome

00:00:12.750 --> 00:00:18.129
to Lightly Used, episode 19, I think? Question

00:00:18.129 --> 00:00:22.609
mark? 20. Episode 20? Already. Episode 20? Yeah.

00:00:22.670 --> 00:00:29.370
Is it really? We'll be at a year soon. That's

00:00:29.370 --> 00:00:31.829
mad. All right, well, welcome to episode 20 of

00:00:31.829 --> 00:00:34.229
Likely Used with me, Karen, and your other lovely

00:00:34.229 --> 00:00:37.270
host over opposite me across the table. Hello,

00:00:37.350 --> 00:00:39.609
I'm Clapper. You have to listen to the last Who

00:00:39.609 --> 00:00:41.929
Takes the Socks Off episode to get that backstory.

00:00:42.329 --> 00:00:46.590
Otherwise known as Adam. Yes, thank you, Simon

00:00:46.590 --> 00:00:48.750
and Ross, for having me on episode 50 of Who

00:00:48.750 --> 00:00:52.850
Takes the Socks Off. And secondary... Thank you.

00:00:52.909 --> 00:00:56.049
We cryptically teased it. We did. Sorry, I thought

00:00:56.049 --> 00:00:58.390
Adam was going to say something completely unrelated.

00:00:58.509 --> 00:01:01.829
I was teasing into that. Yeah. So we mentioned

00:01:01.829 --> 00:01:07.299
briefly, cryptically. Not sure if we were supposed

00:01:07.299 --> 00:01:10.599
to last time that I was also going to be featured

00:01:10.599 --> 00:01:14.620
on a different podcast. And I've been given the

00:01:14.620 --> 00:01:16.620
green light to tell you all that that is the

00:01:16.620 --> 00:01:20.980
A Point of Cthulhu podcast. And I play a big

00:01:20.980 --> 00:01:25.640
mean baddie that probably swears way more than

00:01:25.640 --> 00:01:28.579
she should. I mean, I think I do anyway. It's

00:01:28.579 --> 00:01:31.879
made me a Saturday morning cartoon. Well, it's

00:01:31.879 --> 00:01:35.989
a very... grown -up, hellish, post -apocalyptic

00:01:35.989 --> 00:01:39.650
cartoon. But anyway, they're playing Blister

00:01:39.650 --> 00:01:42.569
Critters at the moment. It is good. I got to

00:01:42.569 --> 00:01:44.170
beat some people up, which I thoroughly enjoyed.

00:01:44.349 --> 00:01:46.370
And thank you to Matt and the rest of the team

00:01:46.370 --> 00:01:49.909
for having me on board. I think I am in episode

00:01:49.909 --> 00:01:54.030
17, 18 or 19. It's one of those three. Oh, check

00:01:54.030 --> 00:01:56.689
it out. A Pint of Cthulhu. That's available on

00:01:56.689 --> 00:02:00.090
all internets near you. Indeed it is. Also from

00:02:00.090 --> 00:02:06.599
last episode, Crystal Maze. You owe me £10, and

00:02:06.599 --> 00:02:10.120
I owe you an apology. Oh, shall we call it even?

00:02:10.120 --> 00:02:12.500
First of all, sorry for snatching the Maze Master

00:02:12.500 --> 00:02:15.759
book. It was, you're looking at answers! And

00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:19.180
I thought, hang on, I also realised, you're looking

00:02:19.180 --> 00:02:23.300
at answers on my behalf. Look at the book! Read

00:02:23.300 --> 00:02:26.139
all of it! And as you pointed out, it was a physical.

00:02:26.259 --> 00:02:28.419
The answer's not going to be in there. No, it's

00:02:28.419 --> 00:02:33.759
not. You absolute flute. Apology accepted. You're

00:02:33.759 --> 00:02:37.020
not getting a tenner. You did bet that I wouldn't

00:02:37.020 --> 00:02:39.219
choose a physical tenner. That is true. I'm just

00:02:39.219 --> 00:02:41.400
very glad that I got the roller dice and not

00:02:41.400 --> 00:02:43.379
the jump stars because that would never have

00:02:43.379 --> 00:02:45.580
happened. And the bits that are fast forwarded,

00:02:45.580 --> 00:02:49.860
the audio that you missed, it was Jackson organising

00:02:49.860 --> 00:02:53.560
picture tiles and you were rolling a dice over

00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:55.659
and over to get it. One, two, three, six. Just

00:02:55.659 --> 00:02:59.599
annoying noises. It was more visual. From last

00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:02.280
episode, Bibliotet, I forgot to mention. You

00:03:02.280 --> 00:03:04.500
can see it on the episode 19 blog post when I

00:03:04.500 --> 00:03:06.419
showed the page that I learned the phonetic alphabet

00:03:06.419 --> 00:03:09.419
from. The example of the crime that responding

00:03:09.419 --> 00:03:11.659
to, I just pointed out that bit in the bottom

00:03:11.659 --> 00:03:13.819
of the page, the phonetic alphabet. The top bit

00:03:13.819 --> 00:03:15.099
of the page, the crime that they're responding

00:03:15.099 --> 00:03:18.500
to. Remember this book came out in 1979. Oh.

00:03:19.039 --> 00:03:21.560
When the burglars break into the fur shop, an

00:03:21.560 --> 00:03:24.840
alarm sounds at the control room. Well, at least

00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:27.139
they didn't specify the race of the burglars,

00:03:27.139 --> 00:03:29.639
just the fact that it was a fur shop. The version

00:03:29.639 --> 00:03:32.560
I've linked to in the blogs from 2008, 2009,

00:03:32.819 --> 00:03:37.800
it says the alarm was from the watch shop. Coming

00:03:37.800 --> 00:03:40.020
up on the show today, we've got lightly used

00:03:40.020 --> 00:03:43.319
news, chat in the box. I'm guessing first. You

00:03:43.319 --> 00:03:46.500
are. The final episode or final instalment of

00:03:46.500 --> 00:03:49.120
the Crystal Maze. We've made it. We've made it.

00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:51.819
We're finally in that bloody Crystal Dome. It's

00:03:51.819 --> 00:03:56.539
taking us. In real time, how many months? Several.

00:03:57.240 --> 00:03:59.819
Six months. And considering we're doing these

00:03:59.819 --> 00:04:04.340
fortnightly, that's been twice as long. Yeah.

00:04:04.699 --> 00:04:07.699
That's how maths work. And it's your choice of

00:04:07.699 --> 00:04:10.039
book to end the show in bibliotech. It is, and

00:04:10.039 --> 00:04:15.099
don't get excited. Okay, I won't. Neither should

00:04:15.099 --> 00:04:20.180
you either then, listeners. Wait, whoops. Please

00:04:20.180 --> 00:04:22.920
stick around till the end still. Well, I get

00:04:22.920 --> 00:04:33.579
excited about it, but you won't. For more lightly

00:04:33.579 --> 00:04:36.699
used reportage, we turn to the Abergavenny Chronicle

00:04:36.699 --> 00:04:39.920
from Tim Butters on Monday, the 1st of July,

00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:45.180
2024. Abergavenny Man claims he's all that stands

00:04:45.180 --> 00:04:49.819
between the world and eternal night. An epic

00:04:49.819 --> 00:04:52.180
of any man has made the fanciful claim that he

00:04:52.180 --> 00:04:54.759
is all that stands between this world and eternal

00:04:54.759 --> 00:04:58.139
night. It's a bold statement, I know, but ask

00:04:58.139 --> 00:05:00.079
anyone. I've always been about the statement,

00:05:00.379 --> 00:05:02.879
explained semi -professional paranormal investigator

00:05:02.879 --> 00:05:05.980
Johnny Turnip. It was Sir Lancelot who awakened

00:05:05.980 --> 00:05:08.199
me to my true destiny, Turnip told the Chronicle

00:05:08.199 --> 00:05:11.560
between mouthfuls of scotch egg. For years, I'd

00:05:11.560 --> 00:05:13.639
sort of coaxed it along, no real ambition or

00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:16.180
motivation, other than to have a good time all

00:05:16.180 --> 00:05:19.160
the time. But deep down, I sort of knew I was

00:05:19.160 --> 00:05:21.620
born for something special, and my new mate Lance

00:05:21.620 --> 00:05:24.860
confirmed it. After meeting a mysterious stranger

00:05:24.860 --> 00:05:28.540
in Llanfoyce Cemetery, Turnip said, The scales

00:05:28.540 --> 00:05:31.139
finally fell from my eyes. I saw things how they

00:05:31.139 --> 00:05:35.459
truly are. Infinite. After claiming to be the

00:05:35.459 --> 00:05:38.220
reincarnation of Sir Lancelot, The stranger explained

00:05:38.220 --> 00:05:40.180
that he'd been sent back to Earth to convince

00:05:40.180 --> 00:05:42.620
Turnip to find and dig up the body of King Arthur

00:05:42.620 --> 00:05:45.319
before resurrecting the once and future king

00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:49.079
and restoring balance to the world. At first,

00:05:49.180 --> 00:05:51.199
it sounded crazier than a barrel of rattlesnakes

00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:53.920
at a full moon party, explained Turnip. But then,

00:05:53.959 --> 00:05:55.399
after listening to him ramble on like a head

00:05:55.399 --> 00:05:59.240
kiss for a few minutes, it all made sense. Turnip

00:05:59.240 --> 00:06:03.019
added, Lance said that only a soul pure in thought

00:06:03.019 --> 00:06:05.850
and deed could wield Excalibur. channel King

00:06:05.850 --> 00:06:08.509
Arthur's spirit, and heal the world and its people.

00:06:09.509 --> 00:06:11.750
Instinctively, I knew he was talking about me.

00:06:12.430 --> 00:06:15.550
In a giddy rush, I quoted Shakespeare. Some are

00:06:15.550 --> 00:06:18.629
born great, some achieve greatness, and some

00:06:18.629 --> 00:06:21.410
have greatness thrust upon them. But I take all

00:06:21.410 --> 00:06:25.470
those boxes, don't I? Yes, Johnny, you do, he

00:06:25.470 --> 00:06:30.720
said. You're a very special person. I thought

00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:35.220
you were going to say very special boy. I stood

00:06:35.220 --> 00:06:37.939
up in triumph, shook my fists at the heavens

00:06:37.939 --> 00:06:40.319
and roared, Who's laughing now, you bastards?

00:06:40.980 --> 00:06:43.060
And then a crow landed on the nearby gravestone

00:06:43.060 --> 00:06:45.319
and started shrieking at me, as if mocking my

00:06:45.319 --> 00:06:47.600
finest moment, which ruined my triumphant mood

00:06:47.600 --> 00:06:50.399
a bit. Sensing my disappointment, Lance grabbed

00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:53.839
both my hands and urged, There are forces of

00:06:53.839 --> 00:06:56.379
darkness gathering that seek to cast all that

00:06:56.379 --> 00:06:58.420
is good and pure in this world into a pit of

00:06:58.420 --> 00:07:01.360
no return. You're talking about the general election,

00:07:01.519 --> 00:07:04.819
aren't you? I said. Lance just sighed impatiently

00:07:04.819 --> 00:07:07.959
and replied, You alone have been chosen to resurrect

00:07:07.959 --> 00:07:12.220
King Arthur, wield Excalibur, and save humanity

00:07:12.220 --> 00:07:17.459
from itself. I am old, so old, and have not the

00:07:17.459 --> 00:07:21.420
strength or courage to do what needs doing. You

00:07:21.420 --> 00:07:24.019
are true to yourself, Turnip, and care not what

00:07:24.019 --> 00:07:27.240
the world thinks of you. That is power beyond

00:07:27.240 --> 00:07:29.829
words. and the reason you have been chosen by

00:07:29.829 --> 00:07:32.250
the Knights of the Round Table to lead this quest.

00:07:32.930 --> 00:07:37.230
Do you accept your mission? I replied, Man, my

00:07:37.230 --> 00:07:38.810
mate Tom Cruise would love all this Cloak and

00:07:38.810 --> 00:07:41.949
Dagger mission stuff. He thrives on it. But yes,

00:07:42.050 --> 00:07:44.889
yes, I accept. Where's my horse? Or have you

00:07:44.889 --> 00:07:47.829
got me a Harley? Turnip explained that Sir Lancelot

00:07:47.829 --> 00:07:50.750
looked at him quizzically before saying, This

00:07:50.750 --> 00:07:54.389
is no joke, Turnip. Long is the way, and hard

00:07:54.389 --> 00:07:56.569
the journey that leads from darkness to light.

00:07:57.000 --> 00:07:59.319
You will need fellow knights to aid you in your

00:07:59.319 --> 00:08:03.199
quest. One will fall in battle, one will betray

00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:06.319
your cause, and one will lose their mind to the

00:08:06.319 --> 00:08:09.060
terror that lies in the darkness between the

00:08:09.060 --> 00:08:12.920
stars. Pray tell, who will you name as your brothers

00:08:12.920 --> 00:08:17.360
-in -arms? You can pick four, no more. That's

00:08:17.360 --> 00:08:19.920
easy, I said. I'll take Big Tony, Puerto Rico

00:08:19.920 --> 00:08:21.939
Paul, Fast Eddie, and if he doesn't have to sign

00:08:21.939 --> 00:08:24.699
on this week, JFK Jones. They'll be my knights.

00:08:25.600 --> 00:08:29.819
Very well. said Lance. It is done. Summon your

00:08:29.819 --> 00:08:33.200
men and fill them with courage. Inspire them

00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:36.639
with vision. Strengthen their resolve and take

00:08:36.639 --> 00:08:40.700
the road to Llandevry in the morn. Hold on a

00:08:40.700 --> 00:08:43.559
minute. Repeat what you just said, I cried with

00:08:43.559 --> 00:08:46.299
a growing sense of unease. Looking all perplexed

00:08:46.299 --> 00:08:49.279
and pained, Lance began. Summon your men. No,

00:08:49.279 --> 00:08:51.580
no, no, no, no, I interrupted. The bit about

00:08:51.580 --> 00:08:54.139
taking the road to Llandevry. What's wrong with

00:08:54.139 --> 00:08:57.529
Llandevry? He asked. What's right with it? I

00:08:57.529 --> 00:09:00.529
bellowed. Have you ever been to Mid Wales? Well,

00:09:00.549 --> 00:09:03.370
I have. I lived in a cave just outside Biltwells

00:09:03.370 --> 00:09:05.210
for four years during Covid and I nearly lost

00:09:05.210 --> 00:09:08.409
my mind. Llandaffery's worse. I used to be dragged

00:09:08.409 --> 00:09:10.230
there as a youngster for family camping holidays

00:09:10.230 --> 00:09:12.490
and I don't think I've ever quite recovered.

00:09:12.889 --> 00:09:16.049
The boredom and tedium and endless fields full

00:09:16.049 --> 00:09:18.990
of livestock and broken people. I can't go back.

00:09:19.210 --> 00:09:22.889
I can't. Turnip explained. Since then I was distraught.

00:09:23.370 --> 00:09:25.330
Lance grabbed my head between his two hands,

00:09:25.450 --> 00:09:28.509
enclosed in white satin gloves, and said, Sir

00:09:28.509 --> 00:09:31.809
Turnip, you must slay this phobia of Llandavery,

00:09:31.950 --> 00:09:35.730
or to become your Achilles' heel. I implore you,

00:09:35.809 --> 00:09:39.049
gather your knights, travel to Llandavery Castle,

00:09:39.330 --> 00:09:42.330
kneel at the statue of Llewellyn ap Groved, and

00:09:42.330 --> 00:09:45.070
summon the spirit of the great prince. He alone

00:09:45.070 --> 00:09:47.450
can guide you to King Arthur's final resting

00:09:47.450 --> 00:09:50.289
place. The forces of light are counting upon

00:09:50.289 --> 00:09:55.370
you. Now go forth. and save us all. Turnip said,

00:09:55.509 --> 00:09:57.789
I've always had a sense of the dramatic, and

00:09:57.789 --> 00:09:59.690
Lance's words banished all the lingering dread

00:09:59.690 --> 00:10:02.529
I had of returning to Landovery. When your job's

00:10:02.529 --> 00:10:04.210
saving the world, you've got to put personal

00:10:04.210 --> 00:10:06.750
prejudices aside. Not everyone is lucky enough

00:10:06.750 --> 00:10:09.250
to live in the Mahdi, and as an urban sophisticate.

00:10:09.519 --> 00:10:11.200
I knew I could probably grow to tolerate people

00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:13.679
from Mid Wales rather than actively despise them.

00:10:15.019 --> 00:10:17.820
I high -fived Lance, roared, I'll be in touch

00:10:17.820 --> 00:10:19.519
when the job's done to discuss payment terms,

00:10:19.720 --> 00:10:21.720
and I ran like the wind to the pub to find the

00:10:21.720 --> 00:10:25.820
boys and let them know the plan. Turnabout it.

00:10:26.379 --> 00:10:28.639
When I told Big Tony the news, he just looked

00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:30.500
up from his game of online roulette, shrugged

00:10:30.500 --> 00:10:32.220
his shoulders and said he'd drive as long as

00:10:32.220 --> 00:10:35.679
I paid for all the beer, which seemed fair. Fast

00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:37.519
Eddie was a bit dubious at first, because his

00:10:37.519 --> 00:10:39.320
only experience of Llandaffery had been the bad

00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:40.879
one with the Duke of Edinburgh scheme the thick

00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:43.700
kids at school used to do. But, when I said there's

00:10:43.700 --> 00:10:45.620
a bit of sword fighting involved, he jumped at

00:10:45.620 --> 00:10:49.019
the chance. He's always loved a scrap. JFK Jones

00:10:49.019 --> 00:10:51.059
was chomping at the bit, because, as his nickname

00:10:51.059 --> 00:10:53.419
suggests, he loves anything involving conspiracies.

00:10:54.580 --> 00:10:56.639
Puerto Rico Paul took a bit of persuading, because

00:10:56.639 --> 00:10:58.500
he'd had a few bookings that week for his Simon

00:10:58.500 --> 00:11:00.960
Le Bon tribute act. But, when offered to buy

00:11:00.960 --> 00:11:02.980
him VIP tickets the next time Duran Duran was

00:11:02.980 --> 00:11:06.019
on tour... He reluctantly agreed. The gang was

00:11:06.019 --> 00:11:08.500
united. The game was on. As we took the road

00:11:08.500 --> 00:11:10.860
in Big Tony's brand new Redfoot Rascal, singing

00:11:10.860 --> 00:11:12.879
the swords of a thousand men, it all seemed like

00:11:12.879 --> 00:11:15.220
a bit of a landish caper. But as we passed a

00:11:15.220 --> 00:11:17.620
sign reading Llandavery, I knew instinctively

00:11:17.620 --> 00:11:21.179
that hell and all its hordes lay in wait. To

00:11:21.179 --> 00:11:24.759
be continued. Brilliant. I must have been one

00:11:24.759 --> 00:11:26.299
of the thick kids at school because I did Duke

00:11:26.299 --> 00:11:29.320
of Edinburgh. That's why I laughed so hard at

00:11:29.320 --> 00:11:37.509
that line. Do you want to play a game? Oh, is

00:11:37.509 --> 00:11:41.269
this like Saw? Is there an option? No. No, you're

00:11:41.269 --> 00:11:42.590
all right. You sure you don't want to play a

00:11:42.590 --> 00:11:44.669
game? Yeah, get off that tricycle as well. It's

00:11:44.669 --> 00:11:47.929
freaking me out. All right, all right. We'll

00:11:47.929 --> 00:11:51.649
just do this instead. It's time for Tat in the

00:11:51.649 --> 00:11:54.370
Box, Tat in the Box, Tat in the Box, Tat in the

00:11:54.370 --> 00:11:56.950
Box, Tat in the Box, Tat in the Box, Tat in the

00:11:56.950 --> 00:12:00.590
Box, Tat in the Box. It's time for Tighten the

00:12:00.590 --> 00:12:04.889
Box. Hey, and it's my turn to close my eyes and

00:12:04.889 --> 00:12:07.470
guess first. Yes, it is. So close your eyes and

00:12:07.470 --> 00:12:11.129
put your hands out. The hands are out. Bring

00:12:11.129 --> 00:12:15.230
your hands together. Oh, it's quite cold. It

00:12:15.230 --> 00:12:22.519
feels like it's a box, board game size box. I'm

00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:24.379
not capable of guessing the rules or anything

00:12:24.379 --> 00:12:26.840
from this. No. I can't tell if there's anything

00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:29.980
printed inside. It's a little bit glossy outside,

00:12:30.220 --> 00:12:34.940
matte inside the box lid. What have we got here?

00:12:38.039 --> 00:12:41.879
I don't know if that's going to be... That's

00:12:41.879 --> 00:12:45.200
the mic. This is, I think, a paper folder board.

00:12:46.100 --> 00:12:50.809
Yes, it's a playing surface. Okay. There's two

00:12:50.809 --> 00:12:55.090
of those. Okay. Oh. Has this been featured on

00:12:55.090 --> 00:12:58.409
the show? No. Okay. So I'm not going to get any

00:12:58.409 --> 00:13:01.210
little Nessie Hunt cellophane bits. You're absolutely

00:13:01.210 --> 00:13:02.990
not going to know what it is. I mean, you know,

00:13:02.990 --> 00:13:04.889
saying that it's a board game is about as close

00:13:04.889 --> 00:13:06.870
as you're probably going to get. Right. I've

00:13:06.870 --> 00:13:11.269
finally got down to some pieces. Yes. It just

00:13:11.269 --> 00:13:15.350
feels like the world's hardest jigsaw. Right.

00:13:15.370 --> 00:13:20.259
These are just rectangles and squares. Yes. Do

00:13:20.259 --> 00:13:23.320
you want to open your eyes? And the way you've

00:13:23.320 --> 00:13:25.100
laid everything out gives you no further clue

00:13:25.100 --> 00:13:28.519
as to what the actual game is. No, hang on. I

00:13:28.519 --> 00:13:31.659
can see a name. Constantine. I'm guessing this

00:13:31.659 --> 00:13:35.279
is some star. No, it's maybe not star. Let me

00:13:35.279 --> 00:13:40.100
have a look at some more shapes and ships. Constantine.

00:13:42.100 --> 00:13:43.639
Iperanga. I could have picked an easier one.

00:13:44.399 --> 00:13:47.419
This one's just called Beta 3. And this one's

00:13:47.419 --> 00:13:50.570
called F2. No, I don't. I'm not going to guess

00:13:50.570 --> 00:13:52.950
the franchise or anything from it, but I'm guessing

00:13:52.950 --> 00:13:58.929
it's some sort of empire building board game.

00:13:58.970 --> 00:14:02.870
You sort of strategy sort of thing in space.

00:14:02.909 --> 00:14:07.730
You dominate an area of space. Yes. So this is

00:14:07.730 --> 00:14:11.629
the game that I bought on eBay last year and

00:14:11.629 --> 00:14:14.409
kept super secret, super safe and didn't unwrap

00:14:14.409 --> 00:14:17.919
it because I was wanting it to be the next. torturous

00:14:17.919 --> 00:14:20.860
board game that we had to play, like Nessie -level

00:14:20.860 --> 00:14:24.159
rules. But unfortunately, it is missing an essential

00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:27.940
guidebook. Oh, is it online? I've not managed

00:14:27.940 --> 00:14:30.019
to locate it online yet, although I have been

00:14:30.019 --> 00:14:33.220
looking. There's lots of forums, but no one seems

00:14:33.220 --> 00:14:37.320
to have the actual rulebook that I need, which

00:14:37.320 --> 00:14:40.779
is a bit of a shame. So this is Star Cruiser

00:14:40.779 --> 00:14:45.799
2300 by The Games Designer Workshop. It's from

00:14:45.799 --> 00:14:49.500
the mid -1970s, I think. As I said, it was an

00:14:49.500 --> 00:14:53.320
eBay purchase. It cost me £5 .98 and the postage

00:14:53.320 --> 00:14:56.820
was free. The aim of the game, it's a tabletop

00:14:56.820 --> 00:15:00.240
role -playing game. The two big black fold -out

00:15:00.240 --> 00:15:02.779
paper bits that you said were a playing surface.

00:15:04.860 --> 00:15:07.100
It's a two -player game, so each player gets

00:15:07.100 --> 00:15:10.100
one of these fold -out surfaces and that is your

00:15:10.100 --> 00:15:13.700
area of space. And the idea is to construct your

00:15:13.700 --> 00:15:17.659
starship or star cruiser. and then test it out

00:15:17.659 --> 00:15:20.259
in action against the other player. So it's a

00:15:20.259 --> 00:15:22.080
bit like battleships in that regard, in that

00:15:22.080 --> 00:15:24.840
we've got an individual playing field. Yes, that's

00:15:24.840 --> 00:15:27.639
the one. Your opponent's job is to stay hidden

00:15:27.639 --> 00:15:30.320
and force you to miss hitting them with any of

00:15:30.320 --> 00:15:33.320
the weapons you so desire to choose. I think

00:15:33.320 --> 00:15:36.299
there's like missiles and lasers and space mines

00:15:36.299 --> 00:15:37.580
or something like that. I haven't read it all.

00:15:37.960 --> 00:15:42.279
This is classed as a hard sci -fi tabletop role

00:15:42.279 --> 00:15:45.440
-playing game. The game's designer workshop ran

00:15:45.440 --> 00:15:50.240
from... 1973 to 1996. Many of their games are

00:15:50.240 --> 00:15:53.259
now carried by other publishers. Although I didn't

00:15:53.259 --> 00:15:55.100
write a list down because as we all know, I'm

00:15:55.100 --> 00:16:00.179
a lazy girl. The founders of GDW were Frank Chadwick,

00:16:00.399 --> 00:16:03.399
Rick Banner, Mark Miller and Lauren Wiseman.

00:16:03.559 --> 00:16:07.019
Now that's Lauren, L -O -R -E -N. So I don't

00:16:07.019 --> 00:16:10.279
know if that's a man or a woman. GDW published

00:16:10.279 --> 00:16:15.500
a new product on average. every 22 days for over

00:16:15.500 --> 00:16:20.539
20 years. So that is an extensive fat catalogue.

00:16:20.559 --> 00:16:23.879
They published role -playing games with fantastical

00:16:23.879 --> 00:16:26.779
settings, as well as games with realistic themes,

00:16:26.840 --> 00:16:30.240
including rule sets for 15 and 20mm miniatures

00:16:30.240 --> 00:16:33.299
during the American Civil War, World War I and

00:16:33.299 --> 00:16:35.700
World War II. And like I said, if I can find

00:16:35.700 --> 00:16:38.259
a copy of the book that I'm missing, download

00:16:38.259 --> 00:16:41.000
it and get it printed, then I want us to bring

00:16:41.000 --> 00:16:44.320
this into the games section because... I actually

00:16:44.320 --> 00:16:46.639
think it would be really fun. I'm getting into

00:16:46.639 --> 00:16:50.779
my TTRPGs, you know, with my APOC friends and

00:16:50.779 --> 00:16:53.419
all that. And I started listening to a new podcast

00:16:53.419 --> 00:16:56.759
today. Shout out to them, Vintage RPG. New pod

00:16:56.759 --> 00:17:01.350
nod. Yeah. follow us on instagram now so thank

00:17:01.350 --> 00:17:04.190
you very much to them oh hello chaps and chaps

00:17:04.190 --> 00:17:07.630
indeed i'm not on instagram no you're not i i

00:17:07.630 --> 00:17:10.930
the reason social media is so lax is because

00:17:10.930 --> 00:17:14.450
it's my responsibility and i tend to forget about

00:17:14.450 --> 00:17:18.230
it about three days after an episode has been

00:17:18.230 --> 00:17:21.329
published well i can't be asked at all so i can't

00:17:21.329 --> 00:17:24.869
give you any grief for it But anyway, this is

00:17:24.869 --> 00:17:28.710
my tat. This is my game. And I really hope that

00:17:28.710 --> 00:17:31.289
I can find all the paperwork because I do think

00:17:31.289 --> 00:17:33.430
it will be good fun. That must be one of the

00:17:33.430 --> 00:17:36.329
only missing things. It's even got the game response

00:17:36.329 --> 00:17:40.069
card in here. Please stamp here so you can respond.

00:17:40.069 --> 00:17:42.710
Let us know what you thought of our game. Send

00:17:42.710 --> 00:17:45.890
this and it'll be on our mailing list. What made

00:17:45.890 --> 00:17:48.809
you decide to buy this game? I wanted to torture

00:17:48.809 --> 00:17:52.259
Adam. The only options they've got is Games Design

00:17:52.259 --> 00:17:55.019
Workshop, Flyer or Catalogue. I liked other games

00:17:55.019 --> 00:17:57.440
in the series. I like Game Design Workshop games

00:17:57.440 --> 00:18:00.039
in general. I like the information on the back

00:18:00.039 --> 00:18:02.559
of the box. Is there information on the back

00:18:02.559 --> 00:18:04.660
of the box? Hopefully I've got all the pieces

00:18:04.660 --> 00:18:06.599
in there, so I'll have to... There is information

00:18:06.599 --> 00:18:08.700
on the back of the box. Right, we'll be taking

00:18:08.700 --> 00:18:11.619
photos extensively of this. We will snap pics

00:18:11.619 --> 00:18:14.920
of all of this. We'll snap a few if we decide

00:18:14.920 --> 00:18:18.049
to play it. then we will snap even more of them.

00:18:18.069 --> 00:18:22.230
Okay. I'll just read their top sentence on this.

00:18:22.329 --> 00:18:24.650
It says, The definitive source of information

00:18:24.650 --> 00:18:29.009
for the starships of the year 2300 has arrived.

00:18:29.309 --> 00:18:32.289
Star Cruiser is both a complete addition to the

00:18:32.289 --> 00:18:35.990
Traveller 2300 rules and an exciting board game

00:18:35.990 --> 00:18:39.150
of futuristic space combat. I was going to ask,

00:18:39.269 --> 00:18:42.369
when you were talking, is... Traveler, one of

00:18:42.369 --> 00:18:44.029
the foreign names of it. I'm guessing Traveler

00:18:44.029 --> 00:18:47.609
is the franchise and Star Cruiser is a subsection

00:18:47.609 --> 00:18:50.109
of that. Yeah, a bit like Star Trek and then

00:18:50.109 --> 00:18:53.170
Star Trek Next Generation, Star Trek DS9. But

00:18:53.170 --> 00:18:55.410
also you can put down you wanted to torture me.

00:18:55.690 --> 00:18:57.769
Oh really? Is there any other option? There is

00:18:57.769 --> 00:19:00.990
a box. Other reason explained below. And also

00:19:00.990 --> 00:19:03.150
check this box if it's your first game design

00:19:03.150 --> 00:19:06.230
workshop game. Awesome. It's a shame they don't

00:19:06.230 --> 00:19:07.710
exist anymore because otherwise I'd have filled

00:19:07.710 --> 00:19:09.230
that in and posted it to them in Bloomington.

00:19:09.769 --> 00:19:12.029
Which adds the value now. Yeah, that's true.

00:19:12.210 --> 00:19:17.230
Extra mintiness. Mint on paper. Okay, are you

00:19:17.230 --> 00:19:22.750
ready to guess? As I'll ever be. May the psychic

00:19:22.750 --> 00:19:31.730
hands forever know thy touchings. I don't know

00:19:31.730 --> 00:19:33.410
if that's covering up a noise I'm making there

00:19:33.410 --> 00:19:37.410
at all. Nearly ready. Nearly ready? Oh my God,

00:19:37.470 --> 00:19:40.460
were you putting an outfit on or something? Is

00:19:40.460 --> 00:19:42.559
it fancy dress? Have you come as Bob the Builder?

00:19:42.660 --> 00:19:51.619
The heels. Okay, it's a multi -part, but I will

00:19:51.619 --> 00:19:54.259
give you two out of the three parts. It's just

00:19:54.259 --> 00:19:56.660
a good idea. Put your hands forward a little

00:19:56.660 --> 00:20:00.839
bit. I will slide this between. Oh, hello. Slided

00:20:00.839 --> 00:20:05.720
between my hands. It's not too heavy. It's definitely

00:20:05.720 --> 00:20:10.079
plastic involved in this. Yep. Moving pieces.

00:20:10.079 --> 00:20:13.279
Can I break any of this? No. Ooh, that opens.

00:20:16.079 --> 00:20:20.740
Where your hand was. I shouldn't be helping.

00:20:20.940 --> 00:20:23.619
No, don't help me. I'm being gentle as instructed.

00:20:25.099 --> 00:20:29.240
Is it on the correct bottom surface? Yes, it

00:20:29.240 --> 00:20:33.880
is facing the right way up. Oh. I think I might

00:20:33.880 --> 00:20:36.539
know what it is. For the sake of it, before you

00:20:36.539 --> 00:20:39.720
do anything. Before I do say what it is. This

00:20:39.720 --> 00:20:43.160
will confirm, I believe. What I wanted to say

00:20:43.160 --> 00:20:47.059
initially is, you know the big Optimus Prime

00:20:47.059 --> 00:20:52.279
rigs? Like when he's a truck. Oh, I wish. I was

00:20:52.279 --> 00:20:55.460
thinking, oh, that could be something like that,

00:20:55.519 --> 00:20:58.079
but it's not the right shape. So I think this

00:20:58.079 --> 00:21:03.950
is your CD cassette deck. Combi player minus

00:21:03.950 --> 00:21:06.730
its speakers. Well, that was the second bit I

00:21:06.730 --> 00:21:08.710
was going to give you. Ah, right. Okay. Yeah,

00:21:08.769 --> 00:21:11.450
you can open your eyes. Okay. Oh, there it is.

00:21:11.529 --> 00:21:14.950
Oh, it's a Sharp. I think I had one of these,

00:21:15.029 --> 00:21:17.609
you know, but I think it had the clear top with

00:21:17.609 --> 00:21:20.630
the same green plastic on the front. Well, this

00:21:20.630 --> 00:21:27.099
is a Sharp XL30. Micro hi -fi system, which I

00:21:27.099 --> 00:21:31.200
found in the attic. Micro component system. Oh,

00:21:31.220 --> 00:21:34.559
same bloody thing. Yeah, I found this in the

00:21:34.559 --> 00:21:37.960
attic. It's a CD, radio and cassette player.

00:21:38.890 --> 00:21:41.190
I could barely find any information online, I'll

00:21:41.190 --> 00:21:43.430
be honest. Oh, what a shame. The only things

00:21:43.430 --> 00:21:46.150
I could really find online were links to, well,

00:21:46.170 --> 00:21:50.390
alleged links to manuals. Lots and lots of them

00:21:50.390 --> 00:21:52.950
with sites with lots and lots of cookies, and

00:21:52.950 --> 00:21:55.529
I wasn't going to allow any of them. You know,

00:21:55.549 --> 00:21:57.369
I just wanted to know what year it was made.

00:21:57.430 --> 00:22:02.509
I think 2005. Oh, really? As late as that? That's

00:22:02.509 --> 00:22:04.150
pretty much the most I could find out. It's from

00:22:04.150 --> 00:22:08.559
2005 from Sharp. I will say, the... Push eject

00:22:08.559 --> 00:22:11.859
on the cassette is very satisfying. It's also

00:22:11.859 --> 00:22:15.160
very slow. It is slow, but it's ultra smooth.

00:22:15.880 --> 00:22:21.700
Accidental partridge. Very nice action. I was

00:22:21.700 --> 00:22:23.700
never a partridge fan. Sorry, that's gone straight

00:22:23.700 --> 00:22:27.019
over my head. You can't claim it. I had a quick

00:22:27.019 --> 00:22:31.500
look online. These are going for around £25 to

00:22:31.500 --> 00:22:33.839
£50. Which is probably what they were when they

00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:37.700
came out in 2005. I've got no idea. Couldn't

00:22:37.700 --> 00:22:40.019
find even an advert for it originally. That's

00:22:40.019 --> 00:22:42.819
bonkers. Does it work? Yeah, separate speakers

00:22:42.819 --> 00:22:45.940
and it works. Oh, brilliant. I just need a power

00:22:45.940 --> 00:22:49.380
cable for the back of it and I saw one in RSPCA

00:22:49.380 --> 00:22:52.960
for 50p. Did you buy one? No, no, I didn't have

00:22:52.960 --> 00:22:54.700
any coins on me and I felt kind of bad paying.

00:22:54.859 --> 00:22:57.660
Can I pay for 50p on here? Yeah, it's going to

00:22:57.660 --> 00:23:02.160
cost the charity shop. Yeah, I'm not paying that

00:23:02.160 --> 00:23:04.240
for... Stupid cable. Yeah, well, you're just

00:23:04.240 --> 00:23:06.079
not as practical as me. I'd be like, I've only

00:23:06.079 --> 00:23:08.019
got my card. Just take a fiver off it and I'll

00:23:08.019 --> 00:23:10.240
take the cord. Put the rest in the donation tub.

00:23:10.500 --> 00:23:12.599
I'll try and remember when I go back unless somebody's

00:23:12.599 --> 00:23:18.740
lost the cord for the kettle. Welcome back to

00:23:18.740 --> 00:23:22.839
what I suspect and kind of hope will be the last

00:23:22.839 --> 00:23:26.420
section of the Crystal Maze. There are two games

00:23:26.420 --> 00:23:30.299
left to play in the Medieval Zone and they are...

00:23:31.069 --> 00:23:33.450
What? Skill and a mystery. Skill and mystery.

00:23:34.369 --> 00:23:37.869
Jackson, your choice. I mean, I had a mystery

00:23:37.869 --> 00:23:39.990
last time, but I really like mystery games. It's

00:23:39.990 --> 00:23:43.369
a mystery. Is that fair? I don't care. You can

00:23:43.369 --> 00:23:47.170
have a mystery game. It's Dean's choice. Mystery.

00:23:47.650 --> 00:23:50.029
Mystery game in the medieval zone. As Jackson

00:23:50.029 --> 00:23:52.430
said, solve two of the three riddles to win the

00:23:52.430 --> 00:23:55.829
crystal. Choose three riddles at random. Give

00:23:55.829 --> 00:23:58.569
the card game to the player so they know the

00:23:58.569 --> 00:24:02.230
instructions. Read the riddles. Team members

00:24:02.230 --> 00:24:05.289
are allowed to help in this one. Once a player

00:24:05.289 --> 00:24:07.849
gives their answer, confirm it is correct using

00:24:07.849 --> 00:24:13.009
the solutions opposite. Repeat the above steps.

00:24:13.730 --> 00:24:16.190
Repeat the above steps for the remaining two

00:24:16.190 --> 00:24:19.170
riddles. Once a player has answered two correctly,

00:24:19.450 --> 00:24:22.250
they win a crystal. No need to ask the third

00:24:22.250 --> 00:24:24.529
riddle if they get the first two correct. Okay?

00:24:24.609 --> 00:24:29.339
Are we? Right. The average medieval diet consisted

00:24:29.339 --> 00:24:33.480
of 47 % grain -based produce, including beer,

00:24:33.740 --> 00:24:40.420
9 % dairy, 29 % meat, and 10 % vegetable -based.

00:24:41.059 --> 00:24:44.400
The rest was made up of herbs, wines, and spices.

00:24:44.980 --> 00:24:48.119
What percentage of their diet was made up of

00:24:48.119 --> 00:24:54.839
herbs, spices, and wine? Just a minute. I've

00:24:54.839 --> 00:25:04.269
lost all the numbers in my head. Five percent.

00:25:06.569 --> 00:25:10.589
That's a lot. You are correct. Five percent.

00:25:10.849 --> 00:25:16.890
Well done, Jackson. One correct. Okay, moving

00:25:16.890 --> 00:25:20.349
on to the second riddle. To celebrate her wedding

00:25:20.349 --> 00:25:24.259
anniversary, the Queen asked the cook... to bake

00:25:24.259 --> 00:25:29.259
75 loaves of bread to give out to the poor. The

00:25:29.259 --> 00:25:33.000
cook had to order flour for the baking. He got

00:25:33.000 --> 00:25:37.500
2 .5 loaves of bread from each bag of flour.

00:25:38.160 --> 00:25:42.500
If he already had three bags of flour, how many

00:25:42.500 --> 00:25:54.730
bags did the cook need to order? Oh, of course,

00:25:54.730 --> 00:25:59.890
with Simon. Yeah. I wouldn't have got this. Really?

00:26:00.329 --> 00:26:03.670
I need, like, paper and pen, because I have to

00:26:03.670 --> 00:26:06.930
write my numbers down. So I'm taking... You've

00:26:06.930 --> 00:26:10.329
already got three bags, haven't you? Yeah. OK.

00:26:12.690 --> 00:26:23.480
That's for a reason. 30, right? Yeah. Well, 27.

00:26:24.559 --> 00:26:26.799
Yeah, I'll give it to you. Yeah, because I forgot

00:26:26.799 --> 00:26:28.720
to take away the three brackets. It says 30 minus

00:26:28.720 --> 00:26:30.599
three in brackets, which is why I said yeah.

00:26:31.059 --> 00:26:33.140
Yeah, I forgot to take away the three. Good job.

00:26:33.599 --> 00:26:36.819
Well done. You win another crystal. Okay, cool.

00:26:36.960 --> 00:26:40.839
Thank you. What game are you playing, Adam? It's

00:26:40.839 --> 00:26:42.980
a medieval skill game. And what does your card

00:26:42.980 --> 00:26:47.180
say? Roll the ball over the words in the correct

00:26:47.180 --> 00:26:51.880
order to win the crystal. Roll over words to

00:26:51.880 --> 00:26:55.420
win crystal. Roll the ball over the words in

00:26:55.420 --> 00:26:57.579
the correct order to win the crystal. What you

00:26:57.579 --> 00:27:03.359
will need, the medieval skill game base, one

00:27:03.359 --> 00:27:07.420
ball, timer and a crystal. preparation place

00:27:07.420 --> 00:27:09.539
the game base in the players hand to give them

00:27:09.539 --> 00:27:12.660
the ball the player needs to pick up the base

00:27:12.660 --> 00:27:16.019
with both hands either side of it and roll the

00:27:16.019 --> 00:27:18.759
ball over all the words in the correct order

00:27:18.759 --> 00:27:23.880
to win the crystal roll over words to win crystal

00:27:23.880 --> 00:27:28.059
if the player makes a mistake and rolls over

00:27:28.059 --> 00:27:30.299
a word out of sequence or the ball falls off

00:27:30.299 --> 00:27:32.480
the base, they must restart again from roll.

00:27:32.759 --> 00:27:34.960
Well, I'm not getting this, Crystal. If the ball

00:27:34.960 --> 00:27:37.880
rolls off the board and cannot easily be found,

00:27:38.019 --> 00:27:39.940
then one of the other balls can be used to continue.

00:27:40.279 --> 00:27:42.480
Is it against the clock as well? Yes, it is.

00:27:42.859 --> 00:27:45.259
I don't know if I'll be able to hold it on this

00:27:45.259 --> 00:27:47.720
board until you start the clock. You can just

00:27:47.720 --> 00:27:49.460
hold on to it. Right, are you ready? I've got

00:27:49.460 --> 00:27:52.700
every faith in you, come on. So it is, the order

00:27:52.700 --> 00:27:58.440
is roll over words. to win crystal. Ready? I

00:27:58.440 --> 00:28:01.480
don't get to start with a ball on the wood roll

00:28:01.480 --> 00:28:03.880
either. No. Okay. Because otherwise you don't

00:28:03.880 --> 00:28:08.380
have to roll to it. Ready? No, but where are

00:28:08.380 --> 00:28:11.900
you going? Turn the timer over now. That's roll.

00:28:13.859 --> 00:28:17.799
Balls on the floor. Oh, well, I'll forfeit. Just

00:28:17.799 --> 00:28:22.900
to save time editing. I'm there. I know I'm not

00:28:22.900 --> 00:28:24.880
going to get it. What are you going to put in

00:28:24.880 --> 00:28:26.019
the place though? You've got to do something.

00:28:26.259 --> 00:28:31.099
No, no, we'll just skip to the end. Roll. No,

00:28:31.180 --> 00:28:33.460
that's crystal. That was crystal. Was it? Yeah.

00:28:33.759 --> 00:28:39.619
Alright, I started at crystal. Roll. Over. Word.

00:28:39.839 --> 00:28:45.240
Two. Ah! Bollocks. Yeah. Skip ahead, right. We're

00:28:45.240 --> 00:28:48.440
going to the maze. Yay! Let's go to the Crystal

00:28:48.440 --> 00:29:00.279
Dome! Skip to the end. We are now outside of

00:29:00.279 --> 00:29:03.980
the Crystal Dome, ready to cross over the wet...

00:29:04.039 --> 00:29:07.119
bridge that one guy slipped on one time in the

00:29:07.119 --> 00:29:10.119
80s and made a complete tit of himself i missed

00:29:10.119 --> 00:29:13.200
that one did you oh it'll be on youtube i'm sure

00:29:13.200 --> 00:29:15.579
a good episode and it might be on youtube somewhere

00:29:15.579 --> 00:29:19.660
okay so for the crystal dome game you will need

00:29:19.660 --> 00:29:24.160
the game board 130 gold and silver tokens four

00:29:24.160 --> 00:29:27.460
maze master's hands crystals earned during the

00:29:27.460 --> 00:29:33.059
game by both teams and a timing device Only one

00:29:33.059 --> 00:29:36.160
Master's Maze hand can be used by each player.

00:29:36.900 --> 00:29:39.319
Count up the number of crystals won by Team A

00:29:39.319 --> 00:29:42.200
and by Team B. Make a note of their totals. Each

00:29:42.200 --> 00:29:45.000
crystal is worth five seconds of time playing

00:29:45.000 --> 00:29:49.019
in the Crystal Dome game. Turn over the board,

00:29:49.140 --> 00:29:51.539
shuffle the cards, chuck them on the board, give

00:29:51.539 --> 00:29:54.319
each player a hand. and then do a timer for each

00:29:54.319 --> 00:29:56.460
of them in turn once the timer starts players

00:29:56.460 --> 00:29:58.359
must lift the tokens with their hands once the

00:29:58.359 --> 00:30:00.039
token has been lifted up the players should take

00:30:00.039 --> 00:30:02.960
it off the plunger and put it in a pile of tokens

00:30:02.960 --> 00:30:05.559
where they are sat players are allowed to check

00:30:05.559 --> 00:30:07.640
whether tokens they have collected are silver

00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:11.869
or gold silver Cards can be discarded but have

00:30:11.869 --> 00:30:14.490
to be put back on the board face down. When the

00:30:14.490 --> 00:30:16.309
timer is up, the players should give all the

00:30:16.309 --> 00:30:18.890
tokens they retrieved from the board to the Maze

00:30:18.890 --> 00:30:20.930
Master who must count up the number of gold and

00:30:20.930 --> 00:30:23.289
silver tokens and make a note of the totals.

00:30:23.410 --> 00:30:25.890
Team B then takes their turn, doing exactly the

00:30:25.890 --> 00:30:29.130
same thing. Winning the game. Count up each team's

00:30:29.130 --> 00:30:31.670
total amount of gold tokens, then subtract the

00:30:31.670 --> 00:30:34.650
silver tokens collected from their totals. The

00:30:34.650 --> 00:30:37.130
team with the highest total wins the game. Okay?

00:30:38.220 --> 00:30:40.519
Well, he'll just be collecting tokens for me.

00:30:40.519 --> 00:30:42.759
I'm not going to have time to sort any. You have

00:30:42.759 --> 00:30:48.299
to slap him. And good luck getting at the stick.

00:30:48.460 --> 00:30:52.480
Oh, right. It's not actually that one. Right,

00:30:52.720 --> 00:30:59.220
Adam. You get ten seconds in the Crystal Dome.

00:31:00.319 --> 00:31:04.880
I mean, you could lick the sucker. Yeah, but

00:31:04.880 --> 00:31:06.559
you just licked it without even thinking twice.

00:31:10.609 --> 00:31:12.450
I'll just breathe on the back of mine. Are we

00:31:12.450 --> 00:31:14.349
ready? They stick to the board, but they don't

00:31:14.349 --> 00:31:16.289
pick it up. You've probably made it really static

00:31:16.289 --> 00:31:21.849
now. Does it count if it lifts? If you pick it

00:31:21.849 --> 00:31:24.710
up on it, yes, it counts. Right, Adam, are you

00:31:24.710 --> 00:31:27.730
ready for your ten seconds? Yeah. Okay, counting

00:31:27.730 --> 00:31:31.789
you down. Good luck. Five. Cheers. Four. Three.

00:31:32.829 --> 00:31:42.119
Two. One. Go. Whoa. Oh, there you go. I'm grabbing

00:31:42.119 --> 00:31:43.680
those. One second, four seconds, three seconds,

00:31:43.799 --> 00:31:46.640
two seconds, one second. There you go, pass.

00:31:47.779 --> 00:31:52.740
And those are the ones I felt. It won't let me

00:31:52.740 --> 00:31:54.019
do it because I haven't got your fingerprint.

00:31:56.480 --> 00:31:58.559
Why wasn't there a stop button there? I don't

00:31:58.559 --> 00:32:05.769
know. Right, how many did I get? You can have

00:32:05.769 --> 00:32:08.890
to wait until Jack's turn. Oh, sorry. I thought

00:32:08.890 --> 00:32:10.329
I'd put the silver ones back on the board to

00:32:10.329 --> 00:32:14.670
make it fair. Oh, yeah. One, two, three, four,

00:32:14.849 --> 00:32:19.990
five, six. I know what colour they are. I've

00:32:19.990 --> 00:32:23.690
got six of them. Right. Are you ready with a

00:32:23.690 --> 00:32:25.630
timer for 25 seconds? I'll let you be in charge

00:32:25.630 --> 00:32:27.569
of the button again. Oh, well, it's still set

00:32:27.569 --> 00:32:33.890
to 10 seconds. Oh, yeah. Okay. Ready. Steady.

00:32:35.529 --> 00:32:46.210
Go. He's not doing it. Where's my hand? Swap.

00:32:48.069 --> 00:32:50.089
Am I just not doing it hard enough? Don't know.

00:32:50.529 --> 00:32:54.289
Ten seconds left. He's not even picking them

00:32:54.289 --> 00:33:00.630
up. There you go. Five, four, three, two, one.

00:33:03.170 --> 00:33:11.039
Stupid. Thank you. Chuck me your cards. That

00:33:11.039 --> 00:33:23.319
wouldn't stick. Right. Would you like to know?

00:33:24.420 --> 00:33:26.940
Absolutely with bated breath. It looks like there's

00:33:26.940 --> 00:33:30.559
more than six cards there. Jackson picked up

00:33:30.559 --> 00:33:37.950
more than six cards. Yes. However, three of them

00:33:37.950 --> 00:33:40.569
were gold. Yeah, and the rest were silver. So

00:33:40.569 --> 00:33:44.009
that cancels me down to nothing. And six of them

00:33:44.009 --> 00:33:46.650
were silver. Minus three. Minus three. You can't

00:33:46.650 --> 00:33:49.630
get minus three. I might get it. I might have

00:33:49.630 --> 00:33:53.289
got one gold. Adam might be in for a minus six

00:33:53.289 --> 00:33:54.930
right now. We don't know that. God, how can you

00:33:54.930 --> 00:33:56.769
think of this domain as a minus? I only know

00:33:56.769 --> 00:33:58.849
one of those was gold because it flipped over.

00:33:59.809 --> 00:34:03.920
Would you like to know what you got? Yes. You

00:34:03.920 --> 00:34:09.539
got six gold cards. Really? So in ten seconds

00:34:09.539 --> 00:34:13.360
with six gold cards, you beat Jackson by nine

00:34:13.360 --> 00:34:15.960
points because he's minus three. Yay, I get the

00:34:15.960 --> 00:34:21.880
pony dragon holiday. Yay. He hated every minute,

00:34:21.900 --> 00:34:25.619
but he still won. How does he do that? I don't

00:34:25.619 --> 00:34:28.019
know. He wins everything. Every game. He hates

00:34:28.019 --> 00:34:30.360
them. I know. He hates playing games. He always

00:34:30.360 --> 00:34:38.179
wins. That's so funny. Well done. Oh, that just

00:34:38.179 --> 00:34:41.360
stuck to each other. I blame the props. There

00:34:41.360 --> 00:34:45.940
we go. Excellent. That was great. Well done.

00:34:46.019 --> 00:34:48.179
Thank you for coming around and completing your

00:34:48.179 --> 00:35:12.260
game with us. still surprised they won that we

00:35:12.260 --> 00:35:15.380
recorded that months ago we did record it months

00:35:15.380 --> 00:35:18.019
ago and personally I think the only reason you

00:35:18.019 --> 00:35:20.039
won is because I got you that second crystal

00:35:20.039 --> 00:35:23.360
oh yeah definitely and also that and Jackson

00:35:23.360 --> 00:35:26.619
was particularly unskilled with the spanky hands

00:35:29.369 --> 00:35:31.329
Let's see that there. What book have you got

00:35:31.329 --> 00:35:35.610
today? I have brought The Pebble Spotter's Guide

00:35:35.610 --> 00:35:39.449
by Clive Mitchell. And it was printed for the

00:35:39.449 --> 00:35:42.389
National Trust and was a gift from my mum a couple

00:35:42.389 --> 00:35:45.909
of years ago. So there's a long story behind

00:35:45.909 --> 00:35:49.380
why I have this book. but basically I'm a bit

00:35:49.380 --> 00:35:50.920
of a treasure hunter whenever I go to a beach

00:35:50.920 --> 00:35:54.099
and I've always liked pretty pebbles when I was

00:35:54.099 --> 00:35:57.039
a small child I was obsessed with fossils and

00:35:57.039 --> 00:35:59.099
so whenever we went to a beach where it was rocky

00:35:59.099 --> 00:36:01.679
or to a riverbed or whatever there's me like

00:36:02.030 --> 00:36:04.530
Knees deep in the water. Having rummage. Having

00:36:04.530 --> 00:36:06.449
a rummage, looking for interesting stones to

00:36:06.449 --> 00:36:09.769
take home, which, by the way, isn't great for

00:36:09.769 --> 00:36:13.949
erosion in general. So apologies to all the coastlines

00:36:13.949 --> 00:36:16.349
that I've affected during my adolescence and

00:36:16.349 --> 00:36:20.000
early childhood. I don't think it was on an industrial

00:36:20.000 --> 00:36:23.739
scale no I don't think just the occasional pebble

00:36:23.739 --> 00:36:25.780
I don't think I could be accused of stealing

00:36:25.780 --> 00:36:28.420
pebbles from beaches on an industrial scale although

00:36:28.420 --> 00:36:32.019
there was a stone circle just outside the village

00:36:32.019 --> 00:36:34.219
where I lived in Milton Keynes up until about

00:36:34.219 --> 00:36:37.559
the age of 10 next to the canal and they're big

00:36:37.559 --> 00:36:40.760
fossilised limestone and you took them all? Well,

00:36:40.780 --> 00:36:43.559
I didn't take the whole stone circle, but every

00:36:43.559 --> 00:36:46.139
time I walked past, I would chip a fossil out

00:36:46.139 --> 00:36:48.539
and I would take it home. That's wrong. Yeah,

00:36:48.619 --> 00:36:51.059
those stones are definitely smaller than what

00:36:51.059 --> 00:36:54.360
they started. Yeah, I think you owe them an apology.

00:36:54.659 --> 00:36:57.079
And a few fossils. Well, I'm going down there

00:36:57.079 --> 00:36:59.219
this weekend, so if I see the stones, I will

00:36:59.219 --> 00:37:01.639
apologise to them and I'll try very hard not

00:37:01.639 --> 00:37:05.480
to steal some sort of crustacean in stone form.

00:37:05.659 --> 00:37:07.840
You need to superglue those trilobites back.

00:37:08.099 --> 00:37:11.019
I don't know where they are. I lost them years

00:37:11.019 --> 00:37:13.920
ago for one of the many house moves that we went

00:37:13.920 --> 00:37:19.570
through. Sorry. I'm a horrible child. You need

00:37:19.570 --> 00:37:22.489
to do some voluntary archaeology. Do you know

00:37:22.489 --> 00:37:28.690
what? I did two years of archaeology in university

00:37:28.690 --> 00:37:31.630
and not once did I get to dig any fucking thing

00:37:31.630 --> 00:37:34.190
up. That's not community service. Two years.

00:37:34.369 --> 00:37:37.110
I did two years of archaeology. Two years of

00:37:37.110 --> 00:37:40.050
hard archaeology community service labour through

00:37:40.050 --> 00:37:43.440
Northampton University. That's why he resorted

00:37:43.440 --> 00:37:45.300
to stealing the... They're out in the open here.

00:37:45.440 --> 00:37:49.420
Yeah. Two years, I dug. Fuck all. You're taunting

00:37:49.420 --> 00:37:51.980
me here. You've got a pillar, a circle full of

00:37:51.980 --> 00:37:54.820
the fuckers. Right there in the open. I also

00:37:54.820 --> 00:37:56.659
quit that degree, so I don't actually... I'm

00:37:56.659 --> 00:37:59.219
not a qualified archaeologist at all. How many

00:37:59.219 --> 00:38:01.559
specimens did you take after you quit? On the

00:38:01.559 --> 00:38:04.579
way out? Well, I didn't take anything from the

00:38:04.579 --> 00:38:08.139
university, except maybe a bad attitude and a

00:38:08.139 --> 00:38:10.280
penchant for spending more money than I earn.

00:38:11.530 --> 00:38:16.010
as is the student's life. I think my stone and

00:38:16.010 --> 00:38:18.730
fossil collecting has reduced somewhat since

00:38:18.730 --> 00:38:22.489
my magpie childhood, but I do have a small collection

00:38:22.489 --> 00:38:25.809
of interesting finds that I've come across along

00:38:25.809 --> 00:38:28.349
Swansea Bay and Bracelet Bay over the last, I

00:38:28.349 --> 00:38:31.969
don't know, five or six years. And yeah, I've

00:38:31.969 --> 00:38:34.170
got a particularly nice hagstone that I like.

00:38:34.369 --> 00:38:36.889
And there is actually a bit in here about hagstones,

00:38:37.070 --> 00:38:41.489
but I'll spend... forever going through but um

00:38:41.489 --> 00:38:44.389
it's a lovely little slightly smaller than a

00:38:44.389 --> 00:38:48.650
size like pocket book every kind of pebble they

00:38:48.650 --> 00:38:51.550
talk about is illustrated so I'll send you some

00:38:51.550 --> 00:38:54.929
pictures of the inside for the blog it goes over

00:38:54.929 --> 00:38:56.750
lots of different types of stones and there's

00:38:56.750 --> 00:38:58.929
a nice little introduction by Clive Mitchell

00:38:58.929 --> 00:39:00.750
I think did I say it was Clive Mitchell yeah

00:39:00.750 --> 00:39:03.550
Clive Mitchell who wrote the book and he's a

00:39:03.550 --> 00:39:06.630
professional geologist Apparently most professional

00:39:06.630 --> 00:39:09.090
geologists like looking for pebbles as a hobby.

00:39:09.269 --> 00:39:12.230
So whenever he finds himself on a beach, he isn't

00:39:12.230 --> 00:39:13.889
really looking at the beach. He's looking at

00:39:13.889 --> 00:39:16.110
the topography and where the rocks are laying

00:39:16.110 --> 00:39:18.110
and what might be interesting and what isn't.

00:39:18.110 --> 00:39:21.190
I've only got Randy Marsh to go on from South

00:39:21.190 --> 00:39:24.190
Park. Randy Marsh? Stan's dead. Oh, there we

00:39:24.190 --> 00:39:26.210
are now. He's a geologist. Before he became a

00:39:26.210 --> 00:39:29.789
weed farmer. He does go on to before he became

00:39:29.789 --> 00:39:32.590
a weed farmer. The series went in some weird

00:39:32.590 --> 00:39:36.219
places. Okay, fair enough. give a really nice

00:39:36.219 --> 00:39:37.920
little introduction and says, you know, he's

00:39:37.920 --> 00:39:40.800
been working in geology for over 50 years now.

00:39:41.440 --> 00:39:45.719
And basically, there's a bit of an argument over

00:39:45.719 --> 00:39:47.820
what the difference between a stone, a pebble

00:39:47.820 --> 00:39:52.619
and a rock is. And he says, a pebble is a smooth

00:39:52.619 --> 00:39:54.940
rock that fits neatly in the palm of your hand.

00:39:55.849 --> 00:39:58.949
So, a pebble can still be a very small stone

00:39:58.949 --> 00:40:01.949
to a large rock, depending on how large the holder's

00:40:01.949 --> 00:40:04.610
hands are. Yeah, so if somebody can have a rock,

00:40:04.610 --> 00:40:07.070
but you give it to your kid, and it's a boulder.

00:40:07.329 --> 00:40:11.210
It does specify that any rock between 4 and 64

00:40:11.210 --> 00:40:14.670
millimetres in diameter is pretty much a pebble.

00:40:14.769 --> 00:40:17.250
Anything smaller than that is whatever something

00:40:17.250 --> 00:40:19.269
is smaller than a pebble, and anything over that

00:40:19.269 --> 00:40:22.349
is, you know, a stone or a rock. Does it go down

00:40:22.349 --> 00:40:28.519
to gravel? Dust? Not in this. Not in this particular

00:40:28.519 --> 00:40:31.139
book. Sorry. It's not the gravel spotters guide.

00:40:31.380 --> 00:40:35.019
I wish I'd like put some little tabs in pages

00:40:35.019 --> 00:40:37.800
with pretty rocks on. Did you say how big the

00:40:37.800 --> 00:40:43.219
scale goes up to? No. I told you like to 64 millimetres

00:40:43.219 --> 00:40:46.440
is a pebble, but he doesn't specify what a stone

00:40:46.440 --> 00:40:50.920
is, what a rock is, and what's bigger than a

00:40:50.920 --> 00:40:54.900
rock. Boulder. Boulder is. It doesn't give particular

00:40:54.900 --> 00:40:57.440
scales on those, unfortunately. It might not

00:40:57.440 --> 00:40:59.739
be Boulder. That's what I wanted to know. Ah,

00:40:59.800 --> 00:41:03.360
I see. What does it go up to? This one goes up

00:41:03.360 --> 00:41:09.219
to Boulder. Boulder in Oregon? Is Boulder in

00:41:09.219 --> 00:41:14.119
Oregon? Colorado, certainly. There's probably

00:41:14.119 --> 00:41:16.860
a few. I think it's the place where the last

00:41:16.860 --> 00:41:22.119
blockbusters still exist. There's a Blockbusters.

00:41:22.199 --> 00:41:23.920
Well, there was a Blockbusters there back when

00:41:23.920 --> 00:41:25.400
Christian O 'Connell was doing The Breakfast

00:41:25.400 --> 00:41:27.840
Show on Absolute Radio a million years ago. I

00:41:27.840 --> 00:41:29.460
know there was one in Alaska as well. It must

00:41:29.460 --> 00:41:32.739
have closed because John Oliver donated a bunch

00:41:32.739 --> 00:41:35.239
of shit to them. Oh, really? So the one in Boulder,

00:41:35.500 --> 00:41:38.480
last I heard, was run by a mother and son. And

00:41:38.480 --> 00:41:40.699
they've got a Blockbusters museum out the back.

00:41:40.760 --> 00:41:43.679
And then they still rent VHS and DVD from the

00:41:43.679 --> 00:41:46.820
front of the store. Is it easy to know where

00:41:46.820 --> 00:41:49.460
the shop ends and the museum starts being a Blockbuster

00:41:49.460 --> 00:41:52.269
museum? I've never been. You can rent these videos,

00:41:52.329 --> 00:41:54.809
not these ones. No, these ones are for display

00:41:54.809 --> 00:41:58.329
purposes only. Notice the blue and yellow tape

00:41:58.329 --> 00:42:00.590
across the door. These videos are for looking

00:42:00.590 --> 00:42:03.610
at, not looking at. But aren't all videos for

00:42:03.610 --> 00:42:06.429
looking at? No, no, no, just looking at. Just

00:42:06.429 --> 00:42:08.289
looking at, not actually looking at. Not looking

00:42:08.289 --> 00:42:11.210
at. You can look at these ones. Just look at

00:42:11.210 --> 00:42:13.670
these ones. Yeah, right, okay. Yeah, crystal

00:42:13.670 --> 00:42:16.590
clear. I was going to tell you about the Picts

00:42:16.590 --> 00:42:18.710
in Scotland and how they used pebbles between

00:42:18.710 --> 00:42:23.090
AD 200 and 800 as art and currency, but you keep

00:42:23.090 --> 00:42:24.769
distracting me with things about blockbusters

00:42:24.769 --> 00:42:26.070
and looking at looking things. I thought I was

00:42:26.070 --> 00:42:27.889
fiddling because you were rummaging. No, you

00:42:27.889 --> 00:42:30.469
were, you were. But to be honest, I'm done rummaging.

00:42:31.409 --> 00:42:33.289
I thought I was just fiddling for time. I know.

00:42:33.469 --> 00:42:35.769
I thought that, I genuinely thought that I said

00:42:35.769 --> 00:42:42.340
guacamole slice then. But it actually says gluconitic

00:42:42.340 --> 00:42:44.679
sandstone. You were close. Close for a glance.

00:42:44.960 --> 00:42:48.900
This pebble's glory is its deep olive green colour.

00:42:49.179 --> 00:42:51.260
Try to ignore the fact that the colour comes

00:42:51.260 --> 00:42:55.260
from fossilised dung. I didn't know that. It's

00:42:55.260 --> 00:42:59.239
poo. Is it coprolite? Fossilised poops? Coprolite.

00:42:59.260 --> 00:43:04.610
Yeah. Yes. Yes. Let's see if he says. Okay. Guacamole

00:43:04.610 --> 00:43:09.809
sandstone, also known as green sand, is a sedimentary

00:43:09.809 --> 00:43:12.769
rock mostly made of pellets of the green clay

00:43:12.769 --> 00:43:16.949
mineral... gluconite with some quartz and clay

00:43:16.949 --> 00:43:20.690
gluconite is formed from the fossilized feces

00:43:20.690 --> 00:43:23.630
of trilobites and other animals that lived at

00:43:23.630 --> 00:43:27.250
the bottom of the sea it's been used as a green

00:43:27.250 --> 00:43:30.510
pigment in painting since roman times and also

00:43:30.510 --> 00:43:33.550
as a fertilizer because of its high potassium

00:43:33.550 --> 00:43:37.239
content Gluconitic sandstone is typically olive

00:43:37.239 --> 00:43:40.219
green, but may also be red, brown or grey in

00:43:40.219 --> 00:43:43.219
colour. Its surface can be rough to the touch

00:43:43.219 --> 00:43:46.840
or smooth like clay, and it may have layers or

00:43:46.840 --> 00:43:50.199
fine laminations. So if you're looking to make

00:43:50.199 --> 00:43:52.320
any of that Dubai chocolate on a budget, that's

00:43:52.320 --> 00:43:54.000
a good starting point for green. Oh, it's green,

00:43:54.159 --> 00:43:56.760
yeah. It's been used as a colour since the Romans.

00:43:57.179 --> 00:43:59.960
Well, didn't Romans used to use spit and stuff

00:43:59.960 --> 00:44:02.510
to make their pigments liquid? It's going to

00:44:02.510 --> 00:44:05.090
go back in your mouth anyway. Chewing on fossilised

00:44:05.090 --> 00:44:06.349
trilobite. That's where the spit comes from.

00:44:06.570 --> 00:44:10.469
Anyway, each page has a description of the stone

00:44:10.469 --> 00:44:14.150
slash pebble. And underneath there's a little

00:44:14.150 --> 00:44:16.369
section where you can say when and where you

00:44:16.369 --> 00:44:18.690
found it and a little description. And on the

00:44:18.690 --> 00:44:22.030
page opposite is a nice watercolour depiction

00:44:22.030 --> 00:44:24.909
of what an average one of those particular pebbles

00:44:24.909 --> 00:44:27.449
would look like. Does he tell you to just make

00:44:27.449 --> 00:44:30.190
a note of it, not to take it home? Oh, he does.

00:44:30.699 --> 00:44:34.579
Say that. Take stone rubbing. The rule of thumb

00:44:34.579 --> 00:44:40.449
is stone rubbing. Hmm. Interesting. I have to

00:44:40.449 --> 00:44:42.769
think further on that. He does say that the rule

00:44:42.769 --> 00:44:45.369
of thumb is to leave nothing behind on a beach

00:44:45.369 --> 00:44:47.309
but your footprints, basically. So don't take

00:44:47.309 --> 00:44:49.010
anything with you. Don't leave anything behind

00:44:49.010 --> 00:44:51.070
except your footprints. So always take your rubbish

00:44:51.070 --> 00:44:53.489
home. So you're just looking for the stone. Yeah,

00:44:53.489 --> 00:44:57.010
and he does argue a good case for how you can

00:44:57.010 --> 00:44:59.210
make looking for stones not only more efficient

00:44:59.210 --> 00:45:03.550
but more interesting by using a one square metre

00:45:03.550 --> 00:45:07.670
grid and placing that over a section of rocks

00:45:07.670 --> 00:45:09.619
and stones. stones and pebbles that look interesting

00:45:09.619 --> 00:45:11.559
to you and then sorting through all of those.

00:45:11.739 --> 00:45:14.780
And he did say that the stones on beaches tend

00:45:14.780 --> 00:45:17.539
to be layered from the smallest size at the bottom

00:45:17.539 --> 00:45:22.150
to the largest size at the top. Which is the

00:45:22.150 --> 00:45:23.809
opposite to how you find... From sand to rock.

00:45:24.110 --> 00:45:26.210
Yeah, it's the opposite to how you find gold.

00:45:26.349 --> 00:45:28.650
The heavy stuff sinks and that's what you catch

00:45:28.650 --> 00:45:31.329
and the light stuff flows away. But stones settle

00:45:31.329 --> 00:45:33.829
down in the opposite direction, apparently. So,

00:45:33.849 --> 00:45:36.429
yeah, he understands that people like to, when

00:45:36.429 --> 00:45:38.050
they've found pretty things, take them home for

00:45:38.050 --> 00:45:40.130
a memory. And, you know, if it's just one or

00:45:40.130 --> 00:45:43.369
two small things and you're not hammering holes

00:45:43.369 --> 00:45:46.969
in the rock faces and putting yourself in danger...

00:45:46.969 --> 00:45:48.889
Stealing fossils out of monuments. ...or creating

00:45:48.889 --> 00:45:51.389
unnecessary erosion, like... like Karen did as

00:45:51.389 --> 00:45:54.230
an eight -year -old child, then it's okay. But,

00:45:54.250 --> 00:45:56.690
you know, don't go down with a rucksack and fill

00:45:56.690 --> 00:46:00.469
it full of cliff. So no stealing Stonehenge listeners,

00:46:00.710 --> 00:46:12.429
okay? Yeah, please don't. That was me. Did that

00:46:12.429 --> 00:46:14.630
get picked up on the mic? I don't think so. I

00:46:14.630 --> 00:46:16.170
don't know if I heard it even in my headphones

00:46:16.170 --> 00:46:19.369
or just... you'll have to you have to wait we

00:46:19.369 --> 00:46:23.329
have to wait for playback okay we've made it

00:46:23.329 --> 00:46:27.929

after season four, but it's gone. Season four.

00:47:56.389 --> 00:47:58.769
Not the finale. Not the finale. You're not the

00:47:58.769 --> 00:48:00.170
big boss, but a boss. I am not the big boss.

00:48:00.429 --> 00:48:03.409
I am not the big boss. I'm looking forward to

00:48:03.409 --> 00:48:05.570
this. I obviously don't have enough cool points

00:48:05.570 --> 00:48:07.670
to be the big boss yet, but maybe one day in

00:48:07.670 --> 00:48:09.730

at all. No. So it doesn't specifically look for

00:49:35.280 --> 00:49:38.340
our watch shop. They seem like a waste of time

00:49:38.340 --> 00:49:55.059
