If you're a game show stats fan like me then you can now find my #HouseOfGames stats alongside the other shows I've documented, here! linktr.ee/danielmarkhurst

@scottygb Interesting bit of scheduling tomorrow night - Sky are simulcasting the 8pm Leeds vs Brentford Premier League game on Sky One to act as a lead-in to the first episode of Saturday Night Live UK at 10pm! (They'll be hoping there isn't too much stoppage time!)

What a week on #HouseOfGames! Rachel, Steve, Sam and Steve combined to produce the joint highest scoring week ever!

Here are the full results for Series 9, Week 19 of #HouseOfGames, the second Champions Week of the series!

On today's first episode, the tiebreak set a new record when the two Steves scored 15 points each, thereby also making 15 the highest ever score to NOT win an episode. Poor @SteveBackshall! #HouseOfGames

Instead of the BBC News at Six, viewers in Scotland got an accidental behind-the-scenes at The One Show.

I've also now added the High Scores table to the Scores tab on the spreadsheet... #HouseOfGames docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

With her score of 17 today, @RachelRileyRR joins the All-Time High Scores table! It's also the joint highest score ever in a Champions episode! #HouseOfGames

Good luck in the new job, Michael! #HouseOfGames

Here's how this week's champions fared the last time they were in the #HouseOfGames! It's the first week ever where two people have the same first name!

@blundernator @chrismccausland Yes - a surprise choice, certainly! Think he could be quite good, though! Yes, perhaps he'll play in that handover week. I was hoping the new host might host and Richard might play!

@danielmarkhurst @chrismccausland MICHAEL SHEEN?!! From the press release, this seems to be temporary (for now) but I can’t wait to see him in action but as a self-confessed HoG fan, I’m surprised we’ve not seen him as a contestant. Probably one for the ‘handover’ week which Richard will present?

What a Champions Week on #HouseOfGames! What a comeback from Chris! Claire is the first player to win 3 days but come 4th overall. Her cumulative score of 45 is also the highest ever by a 4th placed finisher. It's also the first time the highest cumulative scorer has finished 4th

📢 Michael Sheen to host House Of Games! Sheen has been confirmed for the next series on @BBCiPlayer and BBC Two More ➡️ bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/20…

@blundernator @chrismccausland Thank you! Those are two good choices! Yes would be good if it was a former player - maybe Shaun Williamson, Stephen Mangan or the GOAT herself Angela Barnes?

@danielmarkhurst @chrismccausland Great stats as per, Daniel! Also - if you were to make a prediction for Richard’s successor? I’m saying Rick Edwards or Liza Tarbuck, in favour of Rick, though, as I suspect they’ll want to plump for a former contestant.

On Friday, the Wheelie Luggage made its 150th appearance on #HouseOfGames!

With their cumulative score of 167 points, it's also the joint 2nd highest scoring week ever and the range of just 3 points separating all four players on the Weekly Leaderboard is a joint record. #HouseOfGames

@BothersBar Well done on inventing new drinking game #ShotForShot!

Remember: take a drink every time you see the shot of Touker putting his book and pen down. #dragonsden

@scottygb Imagining all the channel execs sitting at the Round Table debating who gets to show it!

BBC has avoided a Bake Off poaching incident, and keeps a show that 100% is going to last to at least 2030 anyway.

@blundernator Haha yes! Darren Harriott also on two!

@danielmarkhurst I love three-way tiebreaks' magnetism to Claire Richards!

Today's episode saw the first three-way tie in a Champions Week. It was also the first three-way tie where the tied players all scored 10+ points. #HouseOfGames

@MattP1Tommy There's not as much pass/repass as we expect because everyone saves their battery for the long straight!

Let’s hear them 👂📢
