52.85% now.

As for a fix - rationalism and Sooty never did go hand-in-hand. Because Sooty was covering the whole hand.

If this goes to the wire, bear in mind that votes may still be accepted for a short time after 1400. One round last week ended at 1420.

I'm now in the office but will continue to do what I can.

53.6% just now! Keep voting everyone! Every single vote will make it that much harder for them to reel us in...

Funny that they think it's fixed in our favour - I was only wondering yesterday if the Radio Times staff were all voting for Sooty!

Seems to be a Sooty-spam wave of votes happening right now.

Just above 52% now. The lead is eroding quickly. :(

The current cause of erosion is that the main sooty page (108k ish likes) made a post. That was over an hour ago now, so its effect has probably now diminished to near zero.

Currently at 52.32%... I hope there will be a final push on the Knightmare Facebook page before the deadline! This is a nailbiter!

Now down to below 52%.

If you get banned, try rebooting your router. You should get a new IP address that the Radio Times website hasn't blocked.

Voting seems to have ended. At least there no longer seems to be a way to vote and the score is at 51.13% for Knightmare.

However, it's only 13:17 now.

Ah, has someone at the Radio Times forgotten to turn the clocks back the other day?

Don't think it can be. Otherwise Monday's vote would have ended early too.

To greet this news, I have put up the following display of mature, Lord Fear-style, humility towards our worthy opponents on Facebook; -

In all seriousness though, that was one hell of a battle. And another round of it is still to follow.

Thank god for that, well that means Knightmare is up against SMTV in the final, and Ant and Dec have a horrifyingly large following!
At least we beat a guy whose career was having a hand up a bear's arse ;D

Yes, I fear for this final round. With that said, maybe we can find an equal number of people that dislike ant and dec.
