About the Game

The idea is to fill in as many words and names on your playing grid, against the timer. Each row begins with randomly chosen letters and there is a host of entertaining categories from "UK seaside resorts" to "creepy crawlies".

The trick is not to opt for the obvious answer - you'll chalk up extra points for words that nobody else has though of.

All you need is a dash of inspiration....
