Trivia[ | ]
- In Not For Broadcast's PAX West Demo, Adrian Atkinson-Blimey originally had the title of 'sir', and was stated as taking on reigning champion Professor Edith Swallow-Hard in the semi-finals of The Quotation Game, with his role as the host of Incisors instead going to a Dr Daniel Friscatti. Adrian's subsequent role assumption was due to his name resonating with the NotGames development team more than that of Friscatti's as a Jeremy Paxman-like chat show host.[2]
