I loved the few seconds of silence while they decided how to move on

I didn’t care about the game after that. I was hoping Danny would say they got the cat back from a kind postman, but he didn’t… 😭😭😭

Poor Danny, the way that hearing the name Bobb awoke a sad memory for him . Weird how the mind works.

Good game that.
Highlight was Danny Murphy talking about his cat being kidnapped by the Royal Mail.
