+) During the 30 seconds in Round 1, three basketball players dribbled a basketball before handing it over to Jimmy, who then "bounced" over a trampoline, performed a "somersault" and tossing it into the net.

Thus, although this was considered "cheating", points were still awarded to her team.
+) During the 30 seconds in Round 3, Jimmy started knitting, only to end up knitting his face and his shirt which he was wearing and after the declarations, he removed them and was visibly sweating.
-In between Round 4 and the second Teaser, Adam Riches was sprayed with water by Susie Dent using a machine while asking Rachel Riley to place letters on the board to describe himself which turned out to be the rude word "BASTARDS" coupled with an exclamation mark at the end to fill up all nine spaces.

-In Round 5, just as Rob Beckett asked Rachel Riley for four consonants, it spelled out "CVNT", which is a clever disguise for the rude word "C*NT" and left the audience laughing at the blunder. At this point, he asked for all vowels until the letter "U" was obtained, after which the rest of the letters asked were consonants. When Jon Richardson declared he had a four, Claudia initially panicked and thought he was going to say that rude word but it turned out to be "CENT" instead and Jon jokingly said he didn't go to America often.

-In Round 6, Richard used an unconventional method and used squares and cubes for the numbers which is not allowed but was commended by Rachel by saying it was "groundbreaking". Also, although Claudia got 70 but was not asked to show her method, it can be assumed she got it using the method shown below.
