Time, gentlemen, please.
Our final player is Gabriel Jesus.
Maccy is our star performer this week with 5 points, closely followed by Eppers again on 4. The rest of were pretty evenly split between 3 and 2.
Here's the latest table with the all-important link to follow:
1. Maccy 22 2. Eppers 20 3. Archie 16 4. BBLW 15 5. Hermann 14 6. Gazz 13 7. Ceefer 9 8. Market Harborough 2
Stay tuned for the link, because some of you will kick yourselves!...

Our six players were:
Rickie LAMBert PEGGuy Arphexad CHRISTian Eriksen Mark BUNn Noel HUNT Gabriel JESUS
Yes, some of you were very close with the religious links you were sending me, but the actual connection is EASTER. Notice how I deliberately didn't use Jermaine Easter in this quiz, despite him being the most obvious player?!
Oh, and remember how I said at the very outset of the quiz that I was away for Easter? That was your first clue!
Only two of you got the link, and it will come as no surprise that it those Heaveners were Maccy and Eppers so, on the basis it makes no difference to our overall winner who got the link first (as it would only narrow the gap to a single point had Eppers got their before Maccy - and he didn't), here's our final table:
1. Maccy 32 2. Eppers 29 3. Archie 16 4. BBLW 15 5. Hermann 14 6. Gazz 13 7. Ceefer 9 8. Market Harborough 2
Thanks for playing, everyone. There will now be a short break from quizzing while I write the next one, but rest-assured I'll be back soon!

Oh bollox !!!
Hit the post three times this week. Fancy doing EASTER in the middle of May !!!
Wouldn't have made much difference though. Nice one Sandy and well played Eppers and Macca.
Cheers

Some of you seriously need to get your CVs into MI5 - how the f*** did you get that link?
b*ll*cks to Sherlock Holmes!

There's usually a clue right at the start of the quiz!

Got eggs-tremely lucky with one or two of my player guesses there... Kept waiting for Ryan Shaw-Cross to show up - and was convinced that we would see Joe Bunney, rather than Mark Bunn, make an appearance! Thanks for the game, Sandy - and well done to Eppers on making it a close-bun thing.

Well played, macc - great win. I had a rubbish first few weeks that I never recovered from.
I very rarely get the link, so that's enough for me! In the end it didn't matter, but I went for Jermaine Easter for the final week, only to discover that there was one more thing more 'Easter' than 'Easter' and that's Jesus!
Thanks, sandy - an enjoyable quiz and thanks for all your hard work in running them.

The only one missing was: Ash(Wednesday) Palm(Sunday)er. I feel I should have got some bonus points for that guess, to be honest!
