"*I am so excited to do Strictly, because if I get married, I won’t look a numpty when I do my first dance.*"
— Sid Owen
Sid grew up in Sutton, south west London but began attending the famous Anna Scher Drama School in Islington. There, Sid’s natural talent and charisma saw him land a role in a BBC adaptation of Oliver Twist. He also met Patsy Palmer at the school, who later would go on to be his onscreen wife.

Sid’s big break came in 1985 when he as cast as Ned, Al Pacino’s son, in the film Revolution when he was 14. Two years later aged 16, Sid auditioned for the role of Ricky in the soap EastEnders. His performance as the lovable but under the thumb mechanic made him instantly recognisable on the streets of Great Britain, whilst his wife Bianca coined him a household catchphrase, as the nation yelled “Rickkkkkay!”.

Sid left EastEnders in 2000 in order to pursue a pop career. He released a cover of Sugar Minott's 1982 single, Good Thing Going. The song reached No. 14 in the UK Singles Chart in June of that year.

Sid returned to EastEnders in 2002 until 2004 and then again in 2008, before retiring from the show in 2012. Sid appeared in a number of other television dramas, including prison drama Bad Girls.

Denali Cannon

The Denali Cannon is a cannon on top of the Denali mountain in Alaska. It is used to shoot balls all over the United States as a part of the game 500. An infamous moment in the cannon’s history was when it shot a ball into a fire station in Livermore, California, on July 3, 17776. By doing so, it crushed the famous Livermore Light Bulb, which was installed in 1901 and had been lit for over 15,000 years.
17776

**17776** (or **What football will look like in the future**) is a multimedia narrative by Jon Bois, hosted on SB Nation. It is written in the perspective of three space probes, Nine, Ten, and Juice. Ten wakes up Nine after (presumably) ~15000 years of hibernation, and the three space probes "perpetually hang out" and view football while Nine recollects their sense of time.

## Chapters

Chapters were published daily through several weeks in July 2017.
Sunken territories

**Sunken territories** (also called underwater territories) refers to any parts of the contiguous United States that became submerged in the ocean when the ice caps melted. This has resulted in the loss of:

* The entire states of Delaware, Connecticut, and Rhode Island
* The vast majority of Florida, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Maine
* A large portion of the eastern and Gulf coastline
	+ Includes major cities like New York, Philadelphia, New Orleans, and Houston
* A large portion of Mississippi, Louisiana, and Arkansas (now called the Mississippi Sea)
* A large portion of Alabama (now called the Southern Great Lakes)
* The entire Central Valley of California (now called Lake Sacramento)
* The entirety of Cuba and the Bahamas

Allegedly, most other nations are not affected by this, as they made an effort to build flood walls and rebuild Antarctica. Nonetheless, people living in the affected areas have relocated and their cultures have persisted.

Illinois Chess

**Illinois Chess** is a variant of chess with several added mechanics, including Monopoly-esque property ownership and dungeons.

## Known Rules

Besides the standard rules of chess, the following additions are made:

* Both players have an unknown amount of money, similar to Monopoly.
* Every square has a name and a monetary value. Either player can buy a square if they have a piece on it, and if the other player lands on that square, they must pay rent every turn. Rent is 10% the original cost of the tile.
	+ Buying a square does not count as a turn.
* For $600, two adjacent tiles can be annexed to construct a Rook Factory. Every four turns, this will produce a rook for its owner. This decreases by one turn for every additional adjacent square annexed.
* Rook Factories cannot be captured like normal pieces. For the enemy to remove one, they must build a Consortium to activate Arbitration.
	+ Building a Consortium requires both bishops to be lined up in the same file. It takes 10 turns, during which no other actions may be performed.
	+ In Arbitration, an extension is added to the board containing four sanctums, containing a knight, a pawn, a bishop, and a rook, owned by the same player as the rook factory. If the challenging player captures all four pieces, they win Arbitration.
* In one variant of the game, landing on the Chicago square transfers the whole game to a 10 ft wide board representing Cook County.
	+ On this board, both players have 304 pawns and 304 other pieces. Among them is one Councilman (formerly called the Vizier) which can move horizontally and vertically a number of tiles determined by a dice roll.
* In chapter rules, leaving the table costs $1.38 per minute absent.

Chapter 1: Please answer me.

Read this chapter here

"Chapter 1: Please answer me," is the first chapter in 17776.

It was released July 4th, 2017. It introduces the three main space probes.

## Summary

The chapter begins with an unusual dialogue exchange taking place superimposed on top of calendar dates. Over the course of ~33 years, Nine communicates with their younger sister, Ten. We learn that it takes 217 days for Ten's messages to reach Nine, and another 217 days to receive a response. Ten instructs Nine to save up charge for exactly 27 years and 13 days with no communication. Finally, in the year 17776, Ten asks Nine to recall the average recorded wind chill during the 1967 NFL Championship. This causes Nine to independently access a negative number, which allows them to set up quantum communication. Nine is now able to freely communicate with the others instantaneously, rather than have to wait for several months. They are introduced to Juice, and learn that they are in fact, the space probe Pioneer 9 which was launched in 1968.

Betsy Ross Bridge

The **Betsy Ross Bridge** is a continuous through truss bridge over the Delaware River between Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Pennsauken, New Jersey. The bridge is the northernmost crossing in the Philadelphia metropolitan area and is the only crossing that is not a suspension bridge. Additionally, the bridge is the only crossing that is not signed as a US Interstate highway.

The Betsy Ross Bridge itself is a standard truss bridge. However, the bridge is notable because it shares abutments with the nearby Delair Railroad Bridge. The Delair Railroad Bridge is a through truss former swing bridge that is now a vertical lift bridge. It carries both AMTRAK and CSX trains over the Delaware River between Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Although the two bridges do not actually share piers, they share one large abutment on both sides, on which both sets of piers rests on top of. As such, the Delair Railroad Bridge can be easily seen from the Betsy Ross Bridge, and the Betsy Ross Bridge can be easily seen from the Delair Railroad Bridge.

Like many crossings of the Delaware River, the Betsy Ross Bridge is tolled westbound into Pennsylvania only. Cars must pay a toll of $5.00 - EZ-PASS and other legal equivalents are accepted.
Tacony-Palmyra Bridge

The **Tacony-Palmyra Bridge** is a steel hybrid bridge over the Delaware River between Tacony, Pennsylvania and Palmyra, New Jersey. It opened in 1929 and is one of the many, many historic bridges on the Delaware River to be constructed prior to 1950. Additionally, the Tacony-Palmyra Bridge is the oldest bridge in the greater Philadelphia metropolitan area.

The Tacony-Palmyra Bridge is also noted for its hybrid construction. A hybrid bridge is one that consists of multiple, independent bridge types within the same main bridge. The independent types of the Tacony-Palmyra Bridge, are, from north to south;

* A continuous deck truss span
* A bowstring tied arch main span
* A truss-supported double leaf bascule span
* A continuous deck truss span

Additionally, the Tacony-Palmyra Bridge is noted for being one of the only moveable bridges on the entire Delaware River. The double-leaf bascule span will open for large freight ships that are too tall or too wide to fit through the bowstring tied arch main span. Because many bridges along the Delaware are not moveable, large ships cannot traverse the river north of Trenton, New Jersey. Therefore, many large ships pass through this area of the river on their way to port in Trenton.

The Tacony-Palmyra Bridge charges a one-way toll westbound, like many Delaware River crossings. However, unlike many other crossings, the toll is $4.00 for vehicles paying cash, but is cheaper at $3.00 for customers of EZ-PASS or another legal equivalent.

Washington Crossing Bridge

The **Washington Crossing Bridge** is an historic through truss bridge over the Delaware River between Washington Crossing, Pennsylvania and Washington Crossing, New Jersey. The bridge crosses the Delaware River less than 1/2 mile downstream from where George Washington and his army are believed to have crossed the Delaware during the Revolutionary War. The Washington Crossing Bridge is also one of only two major bridges in the United States where the bridge crosses between two towns of the same name in different states.

The Washington Crossing Bridge is noted for its unique truss design. At first glance, the bridge appears to be either be a Baltimore Truss bridge or a K-Truss bridge. However, at a closer look, the bridge is actually a double-intersection Warren truss bridge, one of the most rare truss types still in existence today. Many double-intersection Warren truss bridges have been replaced because this design is fracture critical, meaning that the failure of one member can lead to the collapse of the entire bridge. It is outstanding to see that the Washington Crossing Bridge has been maintained well enough that it has remained in service for over a century and still continues to be in service today.

The bridge is currently posted at a maximum weight limit of 3 tons and a maximum height limit of 11 feet 4 inches. Therefore, large trucks and other commercial traffic cannot cross the bridge and must use either the Scudder Falls Bridge downstream or the New Hope-Lambertville Toll Bridge upstream.

The official name of the bridge as designated on the plaque is the **Washington Crossing Toll Supported Bridge**. However, tolls have not been present on the bridge since the mid 1920's. The location where the toll booth once stood can still be made out on the New Jersey side by studying the unusual configuration of bridge approach roads.
Calhoun Street Bridge

The **Calhoun Street Bridge** is an historic multi-span truss bridge over the Delaware River between Morrisville, Pennsylvania and Trenton, New Jersey. The bridge opened in 1884 and is one of the oldest bridges on the Delaware River still in service.

Like the two other bridges that connect Morrisville and Trenton, the Lower Trenton Bridge and the Trenton-Morrisville Toll Bridge, there is no fixed main span length as all seven truss spans are of equal length. The total length of the bridge is 1,274 feet from end to end. Also like the Lower Trenton Bridge, the Calhoun Street Bridge does not have a fixed width, but for a different reason. The bridge deck is a steel open grating, which is usually reserved for moveable bridges. However, earlier truss bridges were designed with this grating to allow floodwaters to drain straight through, before bridge drain systems became popular. As such, it is nearly impossible to measure the width of a steel grid deck, because the measurements would vary depending on exactly where you started.

The Calhoun Street Bridge is currently posted at a 3 ton weight limit, therefore restricting its use to cars and other lightweight vehicles. In addition, the truss structure adds a height limit of 8 feet, lower than the Lower Trenton Bridge at just over 12 feet. Therefore, the only bridge between Trenton and Morrisville that allows full truck passage is the Trenton-Morrisville Toll Bridge on US Route 1.

The Calhoun Street Bridge is a free bridge. It is the second bridge upstream on the Delaware to offer free passage, after the Lower Trenton Bridge. All bridges downstream of the Lower Trenton Bridge are tolled.

The Calhoun Street Bridge was closed to all traffic from May 24th until October 2nd, 2010 for a massive rehabilitation project. During this project, the entire steel grating was replaced, a yellow stripe was painted down the middle of the grating, and extra weight and height limit warning signs were installed at each end. Additionally, the existing sidewalk was repaired and a new sidewalk was added on the other side of the bridge.
Delaware River Turnpike-Toll Bridge

The **Delaware River Turnpike-Toll Bridge**, sometimes referred to as the **Delaware Turnpike Bridge** or simply the **Delaware River Bridge** is a continuous through truss arch bridge over the Delaware River between Burlington, New Jersey and Bristol, Pennsylvania. The bridge serves as an expressway bypass of the narrow and moveable Burlington-Bristol Bridge downstream, and therefore charges a higher toll rate.

The bridge carries Interstate 276, which is signed as the Pennsylvania Turnpike in some sections. However, the highway is not officially the Pennsylvania Turnpike when it crosses the bridge, but the Pennsylvania side of the bridge is still maintained and monitored by the Penn Turnpike Commission.

The bridge was closed to all traffic from January 20th until March 9th, 2017 after a routine inspection discovered a crack in the superstructure. While the bridge was closed, traffic was re-routed to use the Burlington-Bristol Bridge, and therefore marine traffic was partially suspended due to the increased automobile load on the moveable structure. Alternatively, traffic could take Interstate 95 north of Trenton, New Jersey and cross the Scudder Falls Bridge, but this added at least an additional 20 miles to the travel distance. Therefore, many motorists chose the Burlington-Bristol Bridge, on which tolls were temporarily suspended.

The overall design of the Delaware River Turnpike-Toll Bridge is similar to that of several other major bridges, including the Francis Scott Key Memorial Bridge over the Paptsco River in Baltimore, Maryland and the Vincent R. Casciano Memorial Bridge over the Newark Bay in Newark, New Jersey.

The bridge uses an all-electronic tolling system, meaning that there is no actual toll booth to stop at. Instead, cameras will read your license plate, and, if you don't have a valid EZ-PASS or legal equivalent, will send you a bill in the mail. This system, often called "Pay-By-Plate" is increasingly being used by many states as a way to reduce traffic delays on major highways.
Commodore Barry Bridge

The **Commodore John W. Barry Memorial Bridge**, commonly referred to as the **Commodore Barry Bridge** or simply the **Barry Bridge** is a cantilevered through truss bridge over the Delaware River between Chester, Pennsylvania and Bridgeport, New Jersey. The bridge carries US-Route 322 over the river and is the longest cantilever bridge in the United States to date. US-322 is also one of the longest routes in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.

The Barry Bridge is the second bridge upstream to cross the Delaware River, after the Delaware Memorial Bridge. As of 2012, the bridge was heavily underutilized. It is believed that this is largely because there is no direct connection to the regional highway networks from either side of US-322 in this area. Neither Interstate 295, Interstate 95 nor Interstate 76 can be easily accessed from the bridge. As such, it appears that more traffic chooses to use the Delaware Memorial Bridge or the Walt Whitman Bridge upstream.

The Barry Bridge is tolled westbound only. Cars must pay a toll of $5.00 - EZ-PASS and other legal equivalents are accepted.
New Hope-Lambertville Toll Bridge

The **New Hope-Lambertville Toll Bridge**, commonly referred to as simply the **Lambertville Toll Bridge** is a plate girder bridge over the Delaware River between New Hope, Pennsylvania and Lambertville, New Jersey. The bridge is one of two crossings connecting these two towns and is much newer than the crossing downstream, the New Hope-Lambertville Bridge.

The New Hope-Lambertville Toll Bridge opened in 1971 as a bypass of the New Hope-Lambertville Bridge. With it's completion, US Route 202 was finally completed from Maine Pennsylvania. Approximately at the same time that the New Hope-Lambertville Toll Bridge opened, the New-Hope Lambertville Bridge downstream was posted at a maximum weight limit of 12 tons, to encourage large trucks to use the newer span. This weight limit was later lowered to 8 tons and then 4 tons, now hereby prohibiting all commercial traffic from using the historic bridge.

The New Hope-Lambertville Bridge is similar in design to the Scudder Falls Bridge downstream and the Portland-Columbia Bridge upstream. The bridge charges a $1.00 toll for traveling westbound into Pennsylvania - the first bridge upstream on the Delaware within 20 miles to do so.

Additionally, the New Hope-Lambertville Bridge includes a backspan crossing over the Delaware and Raritan Canal - the third bridge upstream on the Delaware to do so.
Lower Trenton Bridge

The **Lower Trenton Bridge**, often referred to as the **Trenton Makes Bridge** is a multi-span truss bridge over the Delaware River between Morrisville, Pennsylvania and Trenton, New Jeresy. The bridge carries US Route 1 Business (Bridge Street) over the river and is a main link to connect with downtown Trenton.

The name "Trenton Makes Bridge" refers to a large sign on the southern side of the truss, which reads "TRENTON MAKES — THE WORLD TAKES". This phrase comes from the history of Trenton when it was an industrial hub - producing materials that were later distributed throughout the US and the world.

The bridge is currently posted at a weight limit of 5 tons and a height limit of 12 feet 3 inches, therefore barring large trucks from crossing the bridge. Large trucks must use the Trenton-Morrisville Toll Bridge downstream and then take the exit for Bridge Street in order to access downtown Trenton.

Like the Trenton-Morrisville Toll Bridge, the Lower Trenton Bridge does not have a designated main span, because all of the truss spans are the same length. Additionally, there is no designated width either, since the truss structure features two columns with one direction of traffic running through each column.

The Lower Trenton Bridge is the first crossing upstream and the last crossing downstream that allows free passage - all other crossings downstream are tolled in at least one direction (usually westbound).
