Spoilers For Monday May 16th 2016

Post by James Robinson »

Wahey!! Countdown has returned to something along the lines of regular this week :!: :!: :!:

We have 5 shows and one DC guest this week!! Definitely sounds good to me. ;) :) :D

We have Tony Lock in the champions' chair after winning the only 2 games last week.

With just 18 preliminaries left, time is running out to try and claim a spot in the finals, and with Apterite Robin McKay also staking his claim on Wednesday, it'll be interesting to see who might miss out...

In DC all week is journalist and broadcaster, Janet Street-Porter.

Join Sean for the recap soon. ;) :) :D

The challenger looked pretty solid for a while, but his challenge faded allowing Dave Moorcroft to win quite comfortably in the end.

ROUTINIST in round 1. I also had BUMHOLE in round 12 and was childishly pleased about it.

Did you manage to find a word at the same time?
Possibly the first contestant to accelerate with a mic clipped...
