I'm curious as to why JustWill thought he earlier had it narrowed down to a small pool of people who were not on Doctor Who.
Has my post half typed and was researching it while the “doctor who” question was asked so I didn’t see it lol.
Aha I see.

Second thread in a row where someone has guessed someone born in 1975 despite that birth year being eliminated.

Great job, cdngooner!

Likewise. He certainly had me checking my work when he guessed Vanessa Kirby, who I don't think was on any of the listed shows, that I'm aware of.

Whew!

I narrowed it down to Jenna Coleman or Billie Piper. Thank you Hominidae and Spartaculous for being wrong!

I eliminated many Companions by no "E" in their name, or by date of birth. I eliminated Karen Gillan as she is mostly a movie star now. I eliminated Freema Agyeman as I couldn't find she'd been on the Graham Norton Show. I sort of eliminated Michelle Ryan and Velile Tshabala as unlikely as they only played the Companion in a single special episode each.

That was fun. I really enjoyed that. Thank you Jamiet99uk!

If its not Jenna Coleman, then it has to be Billie Piper. That's my non-free guess.
Billie Piper is the correct answer!
Hooray!

Thanks to Jamie for giving me another guess. I then use my free guess on Jenna Coleman. (Gooner, I hope I am wrong and this helps you narrow it down!)
Haha, another crosspost! This time I got beat to it if it is right.
It was not.

You therefore *still* have a free guess.

Damn. Neither of my possibilities has an M in their name. That's not going to help me!

Do you want to burn a question by having one non-free guess, or not, Gooner?
No, as I said, I'll wait for someone else to have a turn. I've narrowed it down to 2, but brute force is no fun.

For the benefit of future games I suggest the rule in question be reworded thus:

No player shall ask more than two consecutive questions, or make more than two consecutive guesses (whether free guesses or question-costing guesses), or a consecutive combination thereof.
