FOREWARNS was an excellent find from Helen.

R8. HINOKI (Japanese tree)

Conundrum took me 8 seconds but it sure is a tough one.

Also they could have added the O for THINKO in round 8. Like a typo but for thinking.

Guy Martin was obviously too busy with his other commitments to become a top tier Countdowner. We could be looking at another octochamp though.

Finally, it was brave of Susie to say that genocide isn't very nice.

Round 7 has generated quite a stir amongst terrorist supporters on X.

Although, as I have pointed out… they’re shouting at vowels and consonants.

How does standing against genocide make someone a "terrorist supporter"?

Someone even heard Susie saying "That's there for eight" as "That's their fate", which is ludicrous.

Do you mean round 7? Susie offered GENOCIDE as a contestant beater and said it wasn't very nice.

In round 8, Philip Aston got HINOKI as a beater and I got THINKO.

In all of the rounds, one of the contestants looked like Guy Martin.
