This is the final episode in our Grumbledown series, in which the team successfully assassinated the predatory schoolmasters of Grumbledown's Preparatory Something or other for the whatsits...we never did quite figure out the name.
Having dispatched the Latinmaster, we adjourne to the pub, The Post Plutius. Jon attempts to blind himself, Mike makes excuses for getting his Latin wrong, Jamie makes it all look easy and we all take some time to enjoy Ben's greatest hits.
This is Ben's final episode of The Infinite Escape Room, certainly as a producer, though I'm sure we'll tempt him back as a solver some day!
This episode features: Ben, Mike, Jamie and Jon

With two School Masters down the team are assaulted by an old flatulent man wielding a Gladius-Blunderbus. It can only be the Latin Master. Listen along as they wrestle not only with a dead language, but the incompetence of their Puzzle Master as well.
There is a cannon and at the end of all this someone is getting fired out of it.
This episode features: Jon, Mike, Ben and Jamie.

Last week the team dispatched the Latin master at Grumbledowns Preparatory School For the Monetarily Advantaged. No sooner has his Peppermint Poisoned corpse hit the ground then the team dive into the Chemistry Lab to dispatch their next school master. Much hinges in this episode, as so often in history, on the placement of a comma, and the interpretation therof!
And cheese. Lots of cheese.

Welcome back to part one of the exciting second instalment of our new format!
Having escaped the rotary club you make your way to your new council house, when you wind up becoming accidental eco activists and are incarcerated at the new Timpson's Prison.
Of course you begin in the processing room, which you must progress through before a hoard of 500 sunburnt gammon headcases come crashing in behind you. Your only obstacles are a furry felon and an innocuous looking door...

Having spent all of their money on a single nights rent the team go out to celebrate their right to exist...in the park, because they can't afford to go anywhere else. Join Jon and Anna as they pick apart Mike's thinly veiled satire of the housing crisis. Digressions include Mike's book, why Mike thinks writing books is easy but putting them together is hard, the absolute Kafka esque hell of the rental sector in the UK and Anna's love of Severance.

In this week's cataloguing of our national decline the team is arrested outside the leafy setting of The Great British Bake Off and returned to their rightful place, a cramped mould ridden maisonette administered by a sadistic estate agent and the sort of landlord that sees the death of one of their tenants as "a real headache."
And like any flatshare, the team are invited to the "house WhatsApp" on their arrival. But why?
And what dastardly villain would come up with such an unrelentingly bleak concept for an escape room?
Mike. Mike would. And he'd do all the voices, too.

Tuck into some Snail Porridge at Heston F***ing Blumenthal's legally different pub as Ben and Jamie try to make sense of last weeks room. Topics include the psychological harm caused by Anosmia, favourite smells (petrol, bacon), the dangers of writing puzzles with similar ingredients and then relying on the team to distinguish between them, and the Victorian pleasure of Snorting Mummies.
Yep, you read that right.

It's only taken five years but Jon has finally managed to start a recording ahead of time. It lasts thirty seconds and immeadiately fails. This is followed by an intro section that goes completely out of sequence and one of the most obscure puzzles we've ever done. There are no locks, no keys or codes. All that's needed is the answer to a simple question. What's wrong with Heston?
This episode features Jon, Jamie, Ben and even Jon's wife Sinead providing some piano for the ending.
