Spoilers For Wednesday September 30th 2009
Another day in the Countdown studios.
Another new champion: George Raison
Another new challenger: Beverley Jones on (the aforementioned mayoress of the Ribble Valley, who I mentioned in the General about a month ago.)
Another day of John Inverdale in DC.
That's the basics done and dusted.
Hopefully, something much more interesting will be posted below.
All sounds familiar, doesn't it

Yep. And if someone slags you off in the next post it will have an even more familiar ring about it.

There was some relevance. When Ben said "spoil away" I Google Image'd "spoiled milk" and got that picture! Most odd.Liam Tiernan wrote:Thank you, Matt. My lunch is now well and truly spoilt.

Hmmm. A true spoiler. Not dragging myself away from Countdown has caused me to burn a quiche. In the spirit of random slagging off - I'll blame you for that, James.

I have no idea why people would want to post spoilers in the wrong thread. Most anal.

R11: Morrison beats DC shocker!
BIENNIA, the plural of BIENNIUM (two years).
Admittedly I had to check as I couldn't remember whether it was DIENNIA^ or BIENNIA, but hey.

Cracking game by the way. George has been spotting some good words these past couple of days.

HARTALS as a reasonably nice equaller with WRAITHS. I was once chatting with a Bangladeshi guy who was greatly surprised that I knew what a hartal was, I didn't let on that I'd only read it from the dictionary.

I looked them up in my dictionary and no can do, John.John Bosley wrote:unlapped - unzapped ??
Plenty of words missed, although I think some were cut out to save time.
These are some I got:
Round 2 - FUDGES and EXODUS
Round 3 - REMOTES and STOMPER
Round 4 - CAGIEST
Round 6 - REASON and SENORA
Round 8 - SHARIA
(I won't bother with the mass of 6's in Round 11)
2 alternatives for 3rd numbers (although there are plenty):
25 - 9 = 16
16 x 10 = 160
5 + 3 - 7 = 1
160 - 1 = 159
The way I did it at the studio:
7 x 25 = 175
10 + 9 - 3 = 16
175 - 16 = 159

Brilliant!
Oh, your SHARIA in round 8 could be extended to SHARIAT in round 13. Exciting times.
