Thanks for taking the time and trouble ...Hello Joe<br /><br />Thanks for taking the time and trouble to comment. <br />I was invited to the taping of the final myself, but alas my school needed me too much on the day. Oh well, its nice to be wanted. <br /><br />Its been a feature of the John Humphrys era that some excellent contenders have been unfortunate to score very highly in their heats without reaching the semis. Fortunately I understand that the repechage semi is returning for the new series. I don't know if there is much consolation for Miriam Collard in this, but at least she knows that she was only just beaten by a great champion.Londiniushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07871325359167581176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401280171563686515.post-84208713792752833692009-06-20T04:13:06.323-07:002009-06-20T04:13:06.323-07:00David, first of all thanks for the interesting rev...David, first of all thanks for the interesting reviews, and congratulations on being the first to break the story on the net! (If my googling is worth anything)<br /><br />I have had a hard time waiting for the final to air, having been present for the taping months ago. That experience gave me a lot of respect for the contenders and the performances they produced under pressure. It would be very interesting to see how Miriam Collard would have finished, had there been a repechage.<br /><br />Congratulations Nancy!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02328876085203294000noreply@blogger.com
