Hello everyone. Quite amused to discover this forum. My god, that was an appalling first four letters rounds from me Hey Bob good to "see" you again, even though I still think you're the most evil man I've ever met. :twisted: As I said to you on the day, I had you beaten in the next game....

With regard to reapplying, I suggest you look at this link. http://www.c4countdown.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2423 Bummer! I would have thought that people who missed the win by only a few points would have been considered worthy opponents and allowed back. The shame is that in Bob's next game, ...

It's good to see 2 normal people playing against each other. The continual stream of "apterous superstars" is a bit wearing. Who are you calling "normal"? :shock: In the "HORNIEST" round, I kept seeing THORNIEST (which I had on my audition) and I couldn't get that out ...

The application website said that only UK residents are able to be contestants. You don't have to be a UK resident. I'm a British citizen, resident in Ireland. James Doohan is (I assume) an Irish citizen, resident in Ireland and there have been quite a few others from Ireland. There was a guy from ...

Well, courage finally came to the fore and I'm due to record in Manchester on June 16th. Excellent! I know that at least three forum members will be in the audience on that day. :) Oh no, oh no! I can feel the pressure building. :shock: Seriously, though, I look forward to meeting some of you. :D

From one of your earlier posts I have seen that you are filming on June 16th? I'm filming the last episode on the 17th so might play you if you win lots of games. Hey Darren, looking forward to it. Whatever happens, I'll be hanging round till the 17th as I have to travel back to Ireland and have to...

It's amazing how simply knowing there's a longer word in the selection can sometimes make you see it instantly Yeah. This is a well documented fact and I used this policy a lot on my run. I told myself "there's a 9 here" and treated it as a conundrum and more often than not the 9 just jum...

Hi. Just found this forum a day or two ago and I have plucked up the courage to join. Welcome Ken. I hope you enjoy this forum. Perhaps we will see you on the programme one day. Well, courage finally came to the fore and I'm due to record in Manchester on June 16th. Butterflies have already invaded...

But Jo Brand got it - does this mean that I have to take back everything I've ever said about her?

Mark Kudlowski wrote:(Sorry, but I tend to watch the show with the sound down whenever Jo Brand is on).

I find that helps. Also, try closing your eyes, it improves the experience immensely!

It's in Chambers as two words. But I don't have the official dictionary

Oh no! I matched Jo Brand with DEFINED.

I'm just bracing myself for Jo Brand's persistent, "I've got a 7", followed by an ever sooooo funny (NOT!) explanation of the "meaning" of the "word."

Surely Des and Carol could have got a better guest for their final week.

I don't think this is allowed, sorry Ken.

Ah well, it's in Chambers - I don't actually know what dictionary they use.

Hi. Just found this forum a day or two ago and I have plucked up the courage to join. I'm currently living in Co Donegal in Ireland (not that far from David O'Donnell.) I try to watch Countdown every day (one of the great benefits of Sky+ is that I can watch it any time I like and I can fast forward...
