Spoilers For Friday July 2nd 2010
Hmmm, i'm still getting over the disappointment of Jonathan losing yesterday. Well, we certainly won't be seeing him in the finals at Christmas.
One person we might see though is his conqueror, Ryan Loughborough, who managed to halt the champions' merry-go-round for the time being yesterday with that last-gasp win. How further can he go
Don't forget there's also a bit of Countdown in tonight's episode of The IT Crowd at 10pm on Channel 4. Based on what I've read and heard about it, it sounds well interesting.
Mike will be around sometime soon.

I thought someone might risk OUTLAID, the most disallowed word on apterous.

Thought swounded might be there (archaic form Of SWOONED). Unfortunately not. Had INWALES as a contestant beater next round. I wonder was Susie looking up plaudit in round 9?

In Chambers' and Collins' dictionaries, it states 'usually plural' but the word nevertheless appears in singular form.Eoin Monaghan wrote:Frayed Knot.Mark Kudlowski wrote:PLAUDIT in round 8

Re: Spoilers For Friday July 2nd 2010
What was the mistake? She said at the end "So, did you spot the mistake? If you did, you're too clever by half." She didn't mention what it was though
It wasn't a vowel out of the consonant box or anything like that was it?...or even an edit where Jeff's choice of shirt was a different colour to the one shown about 2 seconds ago?

Re: Spoilers For Friday July 2nd 2010
My wife thought that the challenger said 'a 3rd' (consonant) in R13 when the U came out. Whether it was from the wrong box or Rachel picked wrong I'm not sure.
I will record it on C4+1 and check.

I thought the challenger said RAVERS in one round and there was only one R and they gave her the points.

Re: Spoilers For Friday July 2nd 2010
I thought the mistake was in the score given for the first numbers game, when Ali scored 7 for being nearest to the target. I was a bit distracted at the time, so I could be wrong, but when I looked up I think Ryan's total score had also been increased by 7. Unfortunately didn't record the programme so can't check. I expected someone to mention this and when they didn't, I assumed I was wrong. However, Ryan would still have won - congratulations to him - but I'm a bit puzzled and wonder if anyone else noticed. Please forgive me if I'm wrong folks!

Two mistakes: RAVERS was allowed and in R13 Ali asked for a 3rd consonant and Rachel picked a U from the vowels box.Kirk Bevins wrote:I thought the challenger said RAVERS in one round and there was only one R and they gave her the points.

This was OK, the score went from 27-20 to 27-27Kathleen Batlle wrote:I thought the mistake was in the score given for the first numbers game, when Ali scored 7 for being nearest to the target.

It was R12 that was RC followed by the rogue U.
I also thought it wrong JS acused RR of wearing a frock - it looks like a skirt and top.

Re: Spoilers For Friday July 2nd 2010
The score things got fucked up the other day, didn't think it was worthy pointing out and I forget which game it was now, I think early this week.
Both contestants had a matching dodgy 7 and when it went to the double player shot where papers were compared, at least the challenger's score went up from 36 to 43, before being put back down to 36 after Susie done her piece on it.

Hi Ralph, Oh yes, I'm still around and avidly watching Countdown. Thanks for noticing. I'm fine, thanks, and still enjoy reading the comments, but probably not so often these days. I was so intrigued by the fact that there had been a mistake, that I tried to work out what it was even though I was distracted. I was actually sewing and trying to participate in the game at the same time! I used to be good at multi-tasking too. I do hope someone will put us out of our misery and tell us what the mistake was.

Re: Spoilers For Friday July 2nd 2010
the mistake was definitely with ravers. it actually gave the game away i thought cause if ryan got beat by a point surely they would've done something about it?
as for the U when whoever said consonant i didnt notice that. i did notice a few weeks ago a vowel coming out the consonant box though, forgot to mention.
