Viewers convinced Ant and Dec’s Limitless Win error forced contestants to lose £250,000 The latest episode of Ant and Dec’s Limitless Win has caused quite the kerfuffle as fans have accused the show of getting an answer wrong. Returning couple Richard and Lorna started strong at £30,000 with 32 lives, however, this number quickly dwindled as they climbed up the ladder. Minutes into the episode, fans were screaming on their behalf over a question on the standard length of the cable of Henry vacuums (of all things). Using some skills of deduction, Lorna and Richard debated between eight and…

Why I think Rockstar Games has the best video game villains – Reader’s Feature A reader complains that video game villains lack depth and proper reasons to hate them, while praising the bad guys in Rockstar’s GTA 4: The Lost And Damned. I don’t think video game villains hit as hard they should. Many of them appear to be evil for the sake of being evil and to give the protagonist an almighty foe to face off with, come the endgame.

I have to admit: I already feel the Nintendo Switch 2 is a let-down – Reader’s Feature A reader is concerned at the Nintendo Switch 2 leaks so far and worries that Nintendo will be forced to play things safe in the new generation. There have been so many Switch 2 leaks this week that I don’t think anyone can be in any doubt that we already know what the console looks like. It’s got so bad that even Nintendo has talked about it, although without saying whether the leaks are real or not. I think it’s pretty clear…

The 42-year-old says he has actually had a tricky few months after relocating to near London and not having a practice base, but that has been sorted out and is feeling more comfortable than he has for a…
