My guess is that contestants who give away classified information before their show airs have their ankles nailed to either hand of the Countdown studio clock before enduring thirty seconds of the clock going round, but I'd like to hear it from contestants before I jump to conclusions.

False. The clock has 1 hand, and it's not the ankles.

We'll have to wait and see what happens to Charlie after the "revelation" of this series. Could be grave.

If this bet is legit Jason, you do know that you have lost the bet, right?
Incase you haven't read the other thread, today's challenger was American.
