???
118 is wrong. that was my answer
she keeps saying ITS ALL ON SCREEN, LOOK AT THE NUMBERS!!
sooo annoying
Does it matter that 'Lightening' is spelt wrong?
It should be 'Lightning' which would lose you a vowel......

I hate that channel.
Have you tried phoning up shorty?
Hmm.... allowing for the mis-spelling of "lightening" I'd say the answer is 10, or 1.... if its meant to read "lightning" though I'd say 9.
it was on for another 2 hours after i went to bed so i never found out :( was soooo annoying. i phoned up a few times :( pound a minute lol but i was so sure i was right ;)

the answer is quite clearly stated in the question -
ignore all the first 5 questions and your left with
**add all the number**
which clearly sais to you, add the numbers up on the screen
(if you still dont understand 2 +1 +0 +0)
- so if your taking No.'s individual the answer is 3, but if answering whole numbers then 102 is your answer.
there is only 2 numbers you can add on the screen. please think about it :P :idea: :!:
sorry if you wasted your money mate, but as your teacher always said, READ THE Q. lol(sorry, not takin the piss or nout lol)

* number of nostrils on eleven donkeys ?
Just noticed this bit - the majority will think that the answer to this part is twenty two, but I make it out to be twenty three.
Look at the quote again and pay attention to the bit highlighted in red.....
* number of nostrils on eleven donkeys ?
Making a bit more sense now? It says one, which although spaced incorrectly is still a number written in the text, not gone through the rest of the text as I can't be arsed!
