Spoilers for Thursday November 8th 2012 (Series 67 Prelim 68
Heather Styles came on to the Countdown scene with a bang yesterday, getting the highest score of the series so far with 114. Can she keep things going today? Also as a quick note: as mentioned in the thread yesterday, Heather is using this appearance to help raise money for charity; specifically Providence Supporting People, a charity that provides long term help to those with drug and alcohol addictions. You can learn more about the campaign here: http://www.justgiving.com/countdown-challenge.
Join James for the recap later.

Liked the round 2 selection PRATESI+LO. Studied the 7 combo + 2 whilst practising with Jessica (not that it helped).
Round 3 DC beater LORICATE.

Shouldn't be valid on Countdown either as it is hyphenated. I had HOAGIE and BODEGA as 6s in that round. Any 7s?Mark Deeks wrote:BIGHEAD not valid on Apterous. I want a refund.

Will double check later wot I did wrong. Rhonda had 27 points after round 6 then magically had 32 by the numbers game. I thought Rhonda only got 5 to Heather's 6 in round 7 then not scored again til round11. I'm off to give my brain a 'systems restore'.

Spotted where I went wrong... 'twas in round 9 when CRONIE was disallowed and ACORN allowed.
Dozy me.

Well done again Heather; can't believe that Susie allowed bighead* having checked the dictionary.

C2: SEATING (7)
Score: 108–16 (max 113)
Another niner for Adam and yet another century. Well done, that man."

Wow, so BIGHEAD isn't in? Controversial.
I had LORICATE, MADISONS (after 30s admittedly) and SWAPTION but apart from those I was absolutely horrendous while playing along there

I thought it was a definite when Heather said it, so am well shocked it's not in, but as Adam said, it makes you wonder if Susie actually looked in the dictionary if it is clearly hyphenated in there..............Andy Platt wrote:Wow, so BIGHEAD isn't in? Controversial.

By the way, the challenger looked really familiar, has she been on other quiz shows before?
