    Not a bad likeness to the TV show, but with some annoyances: some legit words which appear in the OED are not in the app's dictionary (e.g. unlanded, adulter, gloopier, quacker, pogues, rimmed, outrow, outpour, quoter, bint, unpairs, zeroise, panner, rodding, hoolies, mooner, run out of space now - extremely annoying!); it allows some American spellings (Susie Dent does not); and no provision for when you spot a solution but don't have time left to type it in - also very annoying!
