A very impressive debut by Jodine- definitely octo material and would like to see her do well because she isn't a "typical Countdown" contestant. She played brilliantly throughout. Plus most of the DC beaters I had never heard of today- hence a bit of frustration my end :) What do you mea...

Owen Carroll

Well done Jodine. Great job spotting that nine! Good luck tomorrow! But commiserations to you Diane

Owen Carroll

Well done to Diane! And bad luck to Toby. Can't wait for tomorrow's one! Cannot get enough countdown!

The CoC is a higher level. Zarte's decent but with limited spaces, he needed to win the final on a non-crucial.
Oh. Did not know that. Thanks
I can't live with myself. None of this is true.

No he won't - the producer decided he wasn't good enough sadly.
Oooooookkkkkkkkk??????????!

I would assume so, but it could be that I managed to offend the nation with my waistcoat and will be persona non grata come next week. I'm waiting for an official invite before confirming.

Fingers crossed

Owen Carroll

Zarte you'll make the coc right?

Owen Carroll

Zarte and Philip definitely make it in my opinion!

Owen Carroll

Well done Zarte you are absolutely amazing! As are you Philip! Nuff said

Owen Carroll

Figured you were talking about the presentation but was just wondering. Didn't know you posted them

Owen Carroll

Well I'm a bit late as I had other things to do from the time the show finished and the time I'm writing this so apologies for the delay... Letters: Philip's MONRADITE obviously was the key to the game. He's only the third person to spot this after Noel McIlveny and Eoin Jackson did last year in De...

Owen Carroll

Me too. I thought Phil seemed alright. Phil Davies had a bit of a smug look on his face. I don't mean to sound cocky it's just I'm really good at countdown. Why did you put in what I said about being good at countdown? I shouldn't have said really good. I'd actually like to know how good I am so if...

Congrats Philip! Cannot wait for tomorrow

. Bad luck dougie. You woulda won on an ordinary day in my opinion. And Rachel's prediction about a rematch in the finals FINALLY came true. Looking forward to it. But how come you were in the champions chair today Philip?

That match was too close for my taste. Can't imagine how you feel Zarte

Thanks for letting me know about the aminos thing tom. Don't think it'd have made a difference but I don't know

Owen Carroll

Oh I didn't notice Toby when I watched it today.

Owen Carroll

Really good game. Feel bad that Paul once again couldn't get past the qf but Phil deserved it. And now, see for yourself whether I was on form or not. R1: staple R2: outranges!

I'm actually surprised I missed dovetails

Yeah Chris you'd have won.

Owen Carroll

I don't know what's gonna happen but I'm betting that Philip will win in his semi

Owen Carroll

Simpler Alternative for R14: (100 x 4) - 25 + (50 ÷ 10) I'm not convinced. It's pretty clunky, and you've used an extra number. If there's a "standard method", it's what Owen put - 100*4-2*10=380. Ok to clarify, my definition of "simpler" is a method that an average person can t...

Owen Carroll

R1: Founter. But it's not in R2. Deviate R3. Same method I think R4: Jointers R5: entail R6: Same as Toby R7: Wondered about onrail R8: Booted R9: Same way R10: Waddler R11: Silages R12: grasper R13: Creates R14: (100*4)-(10*2)=380 R15: woulda gone for deuberent or dueberent.

But if he said he had a six I would have stuck with unload.

I agree. If I had Outland I'd have risked it as Chris declared his as a 7 first.

Owen Carroll

Well done Philip. I didn't think you'd choose 3l in the final selection though. And well done to Toby for getting this far Andy for making this a brilliant game to watch.

Owen Carroll

Sorry Matt. Shouldn't have lost my temper

Owen Carroll

Don't worry Ryan. It's me who's doing that. I'll just keep quiet. I won't say anything more about it. No reason to call it off now.

I don't understand how you get no points. That doesn't seem right to what you were saying last time.

I have JUST heard a rumour that Countdown might be taken off our screens in the not too distant future.

Poor Darren, a late night recording plus him unsucessfully risking words did him in eventually, indeed what an EMOTIONAL end to the Prelims of Series 78.

I know it's late but I've been meaning to do this since I got here but kept forgetting. Thanks for creating this website Charlie! It's really made countdown even more exciting for me! And that is saying something! What is it saying? I mean that I was excited to death about countdown before I joined

Owen Carroll

I don't think that's why he's calling him a lunatic. Prob cause of the poem

Owen Carroll

Here are my predictions
Zarte will win by at least 40 points.
Philip will win by 10-15.
Chris will win if it's not a crucial conundrum
Phil probably if ain't a crucial

Zarte by about 40-50 points
Philip by 40 points

Zarte by 15-20 points
