The winter tournament continues apace as the arena gets renamed during the broadcast as news filters through of a tragic demise. It's Boring Me versus Sleepy Me and Ventriloquist Dummy Me versus Total Recall Me, so at least one dull and at least one high concept character will be in the next round. But which ones. Only one way to find out. Plus this month's monthly badger draw winner announced - Next month it could be you. Support us here http://gofasterstripe.com/badges and get loads of extras.

Big Drama. Two self-playing snooker legends in action tonight in former champion Me31 and three times semi-finalist Me7. If they both win they will meet in round 2, but Conspiracy Theory Me, me 22 and Serious Me, Me4 will be doing their best to stop them. All in an arena named after a murdered horse.

After a week off to accommodate Richard's film career, we're full steam ahead with Teenage Me taking on Yorkshire Me and former champ Welsh Me taking on the lowlife that is Meninist Me. By the end of tonight 40 players will have become 28 and we'll be halfway to knowing the line-up for Round 2. But for now let's just sit back and enjoy some of the greatest self-playing snooker ever committed to tape.

Two huge frames this week, as another lockdown is confirmed LIVE on air (and that's great for self-playing snooker). Scotch Me takes on King of the World Me and Successful Me takes on Me2. Nearly all these players have been knocked out in round one in previous tournaments, but which of them will flop out again? Controversy in the chat room, but only cos the chat room aren't reading their tea-towels.

Winter Snooker Tournament - Round one, Matches 3 and 4. 2020 has been an amazing year for self-playing snooker - more action, BBC TV exposure and now this fourth tourney do the year. And it's a low profile match betwixt Me18 and Me12 where God will test his only begotten son and then a high profile and tense encounter between heavyweights Me3 and Me1, the former angry not to have been in the elite championship and the latter crowing about winning it.

What will happen.

Finally we're into the first round proper and the draw throws up some cup final matches for round one. But the first one is newcomer Impressionist Me37 versus Neanderthal Me17 (both of whom made it through the qualifying round). There's refereeing controversy in this one, but a blistering contest to start the thing off. And then it's Viking Me 15 versus former finalist Angry Me32. Very similar personalities, but who will triumph on the old green board tonight. This is what the days before Christmas were made for.

SPECIAL Winter Tourney - Preliminary Round 4 - Technical Difficulties. Rich has had a beer and a half and his camera has packed up. Will he be able to finish the preliminary rounds? Or play snooker inebriated? Meninist Me and Oversensitive Me are the former players playing for their place in the first round proper, but what aspects of Richard's personality will they meet around the old green board. And when can we get on with the actual tournament? Rich is tired, emotional and his mind is falling apart. So business as usual.

SPECIAL Winter Tourney - Preliminary Round 3 - And This Is Me.... Kickstarter rewards are in the post. Get swapping your stickers guys. Richard brings you two more frames involving half-remembered figures Me26 and Me28 and new Mes Me37 and Me38. Will the newcomers overcome the straggler old hands. And when will we get into the first round proper?

SPECIAL Winter Tourney - Preliminary Round 2- Mama Mia My Pizza Is Ready. It's the second week of the preliminary round to decide which old and new players will be in the first round proper. And Me21, the Italian Me is taking on newcomer Me35 and Me 24 the Chinese Me hopes to defeat young Me36. There's a special guest in the interview room and some talk of Tipping Point, but after 20 dull minutes the action gets going and snooker is the winner.

SPECIAL Winter Tourney - Preliminary Round 1: Nothing Sinister. It's lockdown 2 and so it's the fourth tourney involving more Mes than Me1 and Me2. Never podcast before, but we're now introducing Mes 33-40 and if they can beat the worst players of the rest then they could bet through to the first round proper. Tonight it's Neanderthal Me17 versus Fist of Fun Me33 and Left Handed Me20 versus Motorcycling Me34. Surely old leftie is just making up numbers like last time? Never be sure of anything with self-playing snooker
