c4countdown

This is the last episode of the week. Not exactly sure why, probably due to horses. Nevertheless, Roy Taylor's on 3 wins in his quest to be the last finalist of the series. Can he continue this quest with a 4th win? We also have a new guest today, Chris Packham. He's a Chris, and he packs ham for lunch.

James apparently will not be here, so join Graeme for the recap later.

(100+50)x6+75=975

Made me happy when Roy picked 3L, but not happy for him missing 975 there - I went the quick way too.

Who's the smuggest between Julia Bradbury, Mylene Klass & Chris Packham?
Too close to call!

Nefarious round 13

One of the best 9 picks in the history of Countdown and he only has a 6

When Rachel did 100+50 I thought she was going to do that as well. But instead she went backwards and did 150/6 and used all 6 numbers instead of 4!

I was so surprised nobody saw that, that I'd thought I'd miscalculated.

Not brilliant from DC only getting 7 too.

1st Numbers Alt.: (75 + (100 / 25)) x (10 + 1 - 7) = 316

Lucky they didn't chose a final vowel in R12.
