It will actually be 7.15 before I'm ready to reveal. This one was so close, I just want to double check everything.

I hope it goes the right way. Captain Holt fans are notoriously litigious.

I was happy with Janitor and Schrute. I don't think I'm going to be happy with the third one. Though maybe the Holt/Uncle Phil vote will be split enough to see one of mine slip through? I'm not optomistic, but I am hopeful.

I don't think Uncle Phil will capture the hearts and minds enough tbh

He taught us so many lessons though

Match 63: Secondchance Showdown - The Reveal (Part 1)

The last of these Eurovision Style Showdowns now, and I hope you’ve all enjoyed this little break from the norm. Still the Wildcard Battle Royale to take place as well this evening to wrap up Round 1, but that’s going to be a far more straighforward battle

So let’s get stuck in to this and find out which character is getting a Second Shot in the Contest

There were some heavy hitters in this one, and a lot of uproar when they were eliminated initially. Not everyone is going to be happy at the end of this

We’ll start with Necro since I’m sure we all know at this stage who they’re giving top marks to. Surprisingly, 4 characters getting votes her from Neccers, which is more than last time...

4 Points to Nick Miller (New Girl)

5 Points to Eddie Finnerty (Grounded For Life)

6 Points to Mitchell Pritchett (Modern Family)

No surprise to see 8 Points going to Philip Banks (The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air)

Character|Pts

He wasn't my first choice but I'm still happy to see Uncle Phil back in the game.

Have to admit I wasn't too keen on the idea of pm-ing votes but it ended up the most exciting part of the contest so far.

As much as I enjoyed doing that, I wouldn't do it in that timeframe ever again. It's a lot to get through in a short time.

The Wildcard Battle will be up in just a minute, and there won't be any PM's or ranking involved for this one, it'll be a single vote per person, right here in the thread...
