    Preset in R'n B - Brent Spiner

    No apostrophe in Brent Spiner?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,597 ✭✭✭Mollyb60


    Have you left out one in Round 2? Cos I know we got Brent Spiner, we didn't get the last one.

    Also, we sucked at round 1.

    Score was correct but formatting had messed up which one you got. You are right, you got Brent Spiner correct.
