Spoilers For Monday April 30th 2012

[James Robinson]

Yet another week of Countdown is about to begin, and we're also at the end of the month too, so you can tell that this series is approaching its conclusion, although that's probably due to the fact that the series finals are being recorded in the studios this week.

Right, for all of us in TV-land, the current champ is Nick Hall, who after beating my beloved Kerry-Anne on Thursday, swept aside another Apterite in Danny Morton on Friday, but he'll probably need at least 4 more wins to assure himself a place in the finals. Can he do it, I hear you ask I dunno.

Making his DC début this week is the wildlife TV presenter, mainly seen on Springwatch and Autumnwatch, Chris Packham.

Join Jack, before he heads off to Manchester later in the week, for his recap.

Equallers were BOLSTERS in R4, ACTIVES in R8 (Nick missed the +S), CAWED in R13, and there are loads of 7s in the
MOPANIS round - so I will let James tell you those! Beater in R11 was my best word from CO:LON - AMPHORAE - though
I didn't risk adding the E to AMPHORA for the Latin plural at CO:LON.

[Brian Moore]

Disappointed that neither ^CUNTIER nor ^LUDDITES are allowed.

Well, I was happy with MALISON, MONIALS and SPUMONI in that one myself.

SAGAMORE in round 1, OINKED in round 7, COSTIVE in round 8 and ACEDIA in round 13.

[Graeme Cole]

SPLENIUMS in R15.

[Richard Priest]

SOLITUDE as an equaller in the DELTOIDS round.
