Nope. You can have a pencil and paper, and as much time as you need, but you’ve got to do all the math yourself.
Hm, during the three shows I watched and then the four I taped, they let our minor slips of the tongue remain [including the mispronunciation of my last name by the announcer the first day] – there weren’t any that affected the play, though.
All of the shows are pre-recorded. They record 5 episodes (a week’s worth) on a Tuesday and 5 more on the following Thursday. I assume they then take the whole next week off. Shows are broadcast several months after they’re taped.
