Playthrough 

A video with a more relaxed and casual focus on the game that is being played.
A playthrough is often a video with live commentary on and is the most popular form for YouTube gaming videos.

A playthrough is not to be confused with a walkthrough as a walkthrough is a strategy guide and a playthrough is not.

Playthrough is considered the same as a "Let's play" and is also spelled "play through" or "play-through"
Guy 1: Did you see that guy's Metro: Last light walkthrough?
Guy 2: Would hardly call it a walkthrough, he was just messing around and it was obvious that he hadn't played the game beforehand, i would call it a "Let's play" or "Playthrough" if anything.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
