It's CATAMARAN, probably been a conundrum at some point.

It was a conundrum when Stewart Holden was on, I think he got it in about a second.

alternatively (75-10-7)x(8-5) = 174

:oops: Cheers for the spelling lesson guys. Wasn't an eXtreme fan before so I didnt see it in the olden Holden days. I think I actually saw it on Facebook Countdown and although I could be wrong I seem to remember it being spelt CATAMERAN.

Hiyo,

We're in novelty land with the numbers again. Alas I didn't quite pull either of these off inside 30 seconds. Multiplication speed is letting me down a bit, I'm sure others could say the same.

R10: (75+10-3)*7-9+1=566

R14: ((75/5)+((10-8)*7))*6 = 174

Do you reckon Neil's 5 wins will be enough to let him reach the finals then? Given that nobody exceptional has come up yet this series, I think he may secure 7th or 8th seed, but doubt he'll go any further than the QFs.

At this stage last series we'd already had Mr Cullen, that Gayle chick and Michael Macdonald Cooper, followed shortly after by the Dodmeister himself!
