Spoilers For Monday January 20th 2014

So, it's week 3 of Countdown, and we're still no closer to our first octochamp of 2014, after CiarĂ¡n's shock loss on Friday means that the series has blown wide open again.

Jamie Halliwell is our new champion, and he'll now have to be our de facto person we want to cheer on, until another Apterite arrives. :)

In DC this week, for his 2nd stint, is the consumer affairs journalist, Matt Allwright.

Andy McGurn will be recapping later on. ;) :) :D :mrgreen: 8-)

I doubt Brett Davids might become first octochamp on this series!

Only the third time I can remember beating Rachel in the 30 seconds:

(100+50-8)x7-75/25

Well done - and there is another method too, but I didn't get either.

Didn't get the missed 4 large inside 30 seconds. Nice confidence damager.

What was the standard method, Tony?

14-maxed today. Just that pesky 3rd numbers let me down. Quite a good game that.

I missed TARWHINE and ANGIOMAS. And Zarte beat me to the conundrum, but I still got that fairly quick.

You can count it as a 12-max. Most people won't be playing against someone when they watch.

Tbf, I do wear eyeliner on occasionally. Anything more than that I cut out years ago... (I did have a phase of looking like some androgynous punk - massive mohawk and checkerboard eyeshadow)
