Thanks mate, you can go to the top of my Christmas card list.Dinos Sfyris wrote:Epic recap Mike worthy of a milestone show. Out of interest how many of our 5000ish shows have been recapped?
Probably fooled by the six 'small numbers', I suspect. Thanks for the stats, Gavin.Gavin Chipper wrote:Oh and the other easy one was 41%!
Great, thanks.Charlie Reams wrote:Forgot to reply to this, but that limit has now been lifted.
Podcast material, surely?Kirk Bevins wrote:The file is 5 hours 20 minutes long and you hear me and Howard talking about recent Countdown events and then Ben interrupts with the first round draw. Not the most enthralling listen but it's interesting (?) to relive the day, if by sound only.
Damn, I forgot to mention that it should be vaguely amusing too! And the prize? A VFSMB, natch.Dinos Sfyris wrote:The five possible 8s in round 11 were ATOMISER, STEAMIER, AMORTISE, EMIRATES and TIRESOME. What do I win?
Brilliant, will look forward to that! Thanks.Thomas Wood wrote:No Mike, not dense at all, I'll be uploading it next Friday. Along with the Series 7 final, 1500th episode, 2000th episode (Greenwood theatre version), 18th Birthday special, 3000th episode and the 3000 and counting documentary each on succeeding days.

Cheers.
Cool, looking forward to it...Dinos Sfyris wrote:Tuesday's may appear sometime later today if I get chance.
Cheers, I'll attempt to maintain your high standard!James Robinson wrote:I'm definitely not against it at all, it'd be great for a Countdown legend such as yourself to do the Friday recaps. Anyway, I too am an anti-Robinsonizationist.
Best of luck to you, Mike.![]()

Just FTR, there was no GRATINEED (or even GRATIN) in COD8.Charlie Reams wrote:Dunno if this was defective at the time, but it couldn't be a conundrum now. 10 points to the first person who spots why.
The first time I read that, I thought you were talking about Jono's aunt! (where did I put my specs?)Ben Hunter wrote:It's looking better and better. The site is still begging for a sweet logo though. I liked Jono's ant with googly eyes.
Or Cecim Korer...Andy Wilson wrote:who ever heard of a cecim anyway
I was pleased to see that 'he''s still referred to as CECIL as well, despite the move across the Pennines. Distinctly heard Jay use the name on his headset.Howard Somerset wrote:Cecil broke down for r5. And Rachel said 664 instead of 644 in r10.
Sorry we missed you - you'll have to shout louder next time!Andy Wilson wrote:I happened to be looking out the hotel window on Thursday morning by the way and who should stroll by the museum only Michael and yourself. I gave a yell out the window but my feeble cry was no match for the traffic noise.
I thought it was Scott Mearns, having taken some kind of age-reducing serum. Unfortunately, it also seems to have sapped his Countdown ability (sorry, Tom).D Eadie wrote:Charlie Reams makes an unexpected return to Countdown today, disguised as challenger Tom Curran. Fooled nobody.
To be fair, I probably have, but may have only considered it as circumstantial evidence! And 'bah' to you too!Gavin Chipper wrote: I'm sure you've been told of TOMCRUISE before. Bah!
