Quizmaster Andrew Taylor, reminding us of his book launch here next week.

What's the answer? 31? 22? Nope. "Add the numbers" is helpfully ambiguous. The "show" is unending rounds of someone calling in with an answer and being spoken to by the "presenter" seen here (this one is Tim), who alternately looks bored and tries not to laugh. He then puts forward the answer to the "quizmaster", after which an animation appears to say that the answer is wrong. Any answer you can conceivably make from this puzzle comes up several times. Apparently, the answer might involve including all the Roman numerals too.
The price of this fun? A mere £1 a call. Tim points out that it's surely worth a go as there's £68,000 up for grabs. He also reminds us that there's a limit of 100 tries (ie, expenditure of £100) per caller per month. However, "we have no way of preventing you from making that call, so please try to keep tabs yourself."
I don't know which is the more unbelievable — that it's legal or that people call in.
