The obligatory "taking a sip of water so everybody knows I've got it".

[starlightiris]

Being surprised at how high the scores are really shows how used to the 8 out of 10 cats one I am

[WxB]

Jimmy Carr: So Roisin, did you get it?
Roisin: I didn't get it

[bryanaughal]

What's even more hilarious is the fact that 8, 2, 7, and 3 were all in play.
8 + 2 = 10
7 + 3 = 10

[ogichi]

I love how Rachel just got flustered and annoyed that it was easy.

[erazure.]

Kathrine Tate: You’re saying it like it’s obvious

[conradsmithlacsina]

Thus far, this is the only numbers game I've solved. I still have a long way to go, but I have just discovered this program and I'm enjoying it.

Jeff: We go to Chris. Chris, did you get an answer for that sum?

Chris: I don’t know, Jeff...

[Jordanwilk]

This round would’ve been hilarious on 8 out of 10 Cats does Countdown

[ronvlaarsvar]

First one I've ever tried. Nailed it, I am now retiring with a 100% record

[ogichi]

Rachel always has the most flustered yet adorable reaction whenever it's so easy.

[garyking]

That was a lot more wholesome than expected

[nerddwarf]

"Actually I did something quite different you see?
I took the 10 and multiplied that by the 50.
Completely different. Obviously"

[ngarcia]

8 + 2 = 10
7 + 3 = 10
10 / 10 = 1
1 x 50 = 50
50 x 10 = 500

[danieljones]

Amazing how those numbers fell to give you the option to make the 10, either 10, 8+2, 3+7, it really wanted to make sure you didn’t miss the 10 😁

[GronkGames]

I got a 5 letter word, what do I win?

[Glottia]

I read the word blooper in the title and expected someone to get it wrong.

[jaffacake]

I love their reactions during the 30 seconds 😂😂😂

[chelseayoung]

I did 7+3... Then panicked for 24 seconds, and with 3 seconds to spare, I realised you could times it by 50. Tricky one though 😂😂😂

[Zeuseus]

It gets even better when you realise the other four numbers (8, 3, 7 and 2) also form two sets of ten by addition: 8+2, 7+3; so there were three easy ways to do 50*10.
