Re: Known bugs
My chat seems to break all the time. Is this normal? At the moment it doesn't work at all, I just hope I don't come across as rude when it breaks half way through a game!

Re: Random Stuff
Okay, I'll try something random... wouldn't be awesome if there was a Countdown game on the Nintendo DS? Then you could literally play all day long, wherever you are. The DS has just about everything else and I'm sure it'd sell loads. Totally. Especially now the electronic game is unavailable. I us...

What do the contestants actually do during the adverts?
I was just wondering what actually happens in the intervals. I hope I'm not being stupid, but I was just wondering whether the contestants have a little chat with Des, Carol, Susie, etc. or just sort of sit there....?

Sorry if you like her but I just find her intolerable.

Re: Wed 16 Jul Spoilers
I agree Bev was the best contestant in ages, it's just a shame she isn't very good at the game. I managed to get arbiter but i had noteless and not toneless so i suppose it isn't there, despite it being allowed in scrabble. The way this series is going, the footballer looks set to be the champ!
