On average, this was the highest scoring series ever! It featured three of the Top 10 scorers of all time! There was also a record 5 episode scores of 17+. Steve Backshall also became the first player to score 15 points and NOT win the episode! #HouseOfGames

Thank you to @RichardOsman and the team for an amazing Series 9 of #HouseOfGames! Top scorers: Patrick Grant and Vittorio Angelone. Vittorio was also the 3rd person to win all 5 days and Adam Buxton was the 4th. The Decanter overtook the Fondue Set to become 3rd most popular.

Instead of the BBC News at Six, viewers in Scotland got an accidental behind-the-scenes at The One Show.

Thank you for all your kind words as I step down from #HouseOfGames after 9 amazing years. It is honestly the most fun show to work on, with the most wonderful team, but, after 800 episodes it's time to hand over the keys to a new host. There are plenty of new episodes still to air though, and I'll even be filming one final handover week later in the year! It really has been a treat from start to finish.

Tabby DIDN'T leave Weston 0.30 secs to make up. 1:00.59 + 0.30 DOESN'T equal 1:00:77. It turns out the 0.30 difference is to the fastest female run, which is a strange comparison to show. Tabby was only 0.18 secs behind the leading Germans. #WinterOlympics #BBCOlympics

I've added some new Scores stats to the @RichardOsman's #HouseOfGames spreadsheet! On three occasions the winner scored just 5 points, but on three other episodes a score of 14 points WASN'T enough to win!

I may have come second every single episode of #HouseOfGames but I did force production to mail a whole fondue set to Australia so who’s the real winner. (Mark Steel, who gave me his prize)
