Wahey!! Countdown has returned to something along the lines of regular this week

We have 5 shows and one DC guest this week!! Definitely sounds good to me.

We have Tony Lock in the champions' chair after winning the only 2 games last week.

With just 18 preliminaries left, time is running out to try and claim a spot in the finals, and with Apterite Robin McKay also staking his claim on Wednesday, it'll be interesting to see who might miss out...

In DC all week is journalist and broadcaster, Janet Street-Porter.

Join Sean for the recap soon.

INTROITS as alt 8 in R1 but I am told there is a 9...
CONVENE as an alt to CONNIVE.

Alt first numbers (75+8)x8+9; second numbers 7x6x10-100-1; alt third (25+5)x2x9-4

Conundrum solver looked familiar, former contestant maybe?

Yeah. Lee, my last heat opponent. Great guy.

The challenger looked pretty solid for a while, but his challenge faded allowing Dave Moorcroft to win quite comfortably in the end.

Cheers. Thought it was from around then but I am terrible with names so wouldn't have got that part

ROUTINIST in round 1. I also had BUMHOLE in round 12 and was childishly pleased about it.

Did you manage to find a word at the same time?
