14 - the Grizzly Bear. So that's Grasshopper Mouse v Grizzly Bear. There's no easy ties in WHC anymore.

In defence of the Basset Hound, I lived in Southampton for 3 years. Occasionally had to walk through an area called Bassett, most unpleasant, definitely lots of hard folk about.

Last four left...

7 - Bobbit Worm. It could be a big year for this entrant after its Blue Planet II appearance. It's been hard at work at its Woking training camp and is looking lean and angry. Up against...

10 - the Siberian Tiger. Ouch!

Two to go now. Martin...

(pick)

12 - Polar Bear. Arguably the king of WHC but hasn't had everything its own way so far this year. Which leaves...

That's 9 - the Asian Giant Hornet. We're going to need neutral ground for that one. And that's the lot. So here's the full draw...

Glad you managed to empty your sack Jim, never thought you were going to finish off

Fabulous entertainment pre-FA Cup.

Gary should have used this as a filler.

So here's that draw in full...

Honey Badger v Great White Shark
Black Swallower v Orca
Tardigrade v Black Mamba
Tasmanian Devil v Basset Hound
Hippopotamus v Salt Water Crocodile
Grasshopper Mouse v Grizzly Bear
Bobbit Worm v Siberian Tiger
Polar Bear v Asian Giant Hornet

Some mouth watering ties there but it's very hard to see past Honey Badger v Great White. A full house guaranteed and one for the cameras.

Number 3 - the Black Swallower. Strong new entrant for 2018 with high hopes.

(shake shake shake)

...against number 11 - the Orca. A fascinating ocean match up. We know the Swallower has an oversized stomach but that's an enormous challenge.

Fix.

The competition is dead to me.

Ties will be played just as soon as we can get the creatures out of the green room and into the AnimalDome. Voting will be open for two days per tie. Basset enthusiasts will need to put their money where their mouth is.

Michaela. Gillian. Martin. Thank you all for your efforts. It's been intense.
