I am thinking that most of countdown series and episodes should be broadcast on youtube for the reason are people might want to watch the episode for memorial (Callum Todd vs Abdi Hirsi for me), or people might want to practise and learn new word or even word of mouth when the contestant's family or friend want to show them about how contestant doing well on the show.
I did try and search Callum vs Abdi because I find it was great contest on that series especially Abdi's controversy crucial conunudrum cos I was not expected Abdi was stuttered on crucial conundrum which is great opportunity for him to match winner.
Thoughts?

Re: Classic Countdown on Youtube
Channel 4 seem very protective of Countdown copyrights, as they have every right to be, but it does seem a shame as it can surely only help the show's popularity at no expense to them.
Giles put the series 68 final on youtube a few weeks ago, and it was taken down within 2 days.

They recently took most of their stuff off YT and encouraged more traffic to their own site.
The clip of me electrocuting Bradley Cates has survived a few years now though.
