Countdown on All 4
I haven't been able to watch yesterday's (Mon 4/10/21) game because it hasn't appeared on All 4. Also Friday's game isn't on there either (but I watched that on TV). Is this due to the ongoing problems they've been having does anyone know?
Re: Countdown on All 4
No episode on All 4 since 1 October. Really annoying as we don’t have a recording box.

Re: Countdown on All 4
Thanks. There should be a note on the site. It's pretty weak from them.

Re: Countdown on All 4
It seems weird that Channel 4 are uniquely affected long-term by something that affected many channels at the time. A fire alarm going off of all things. Also known as "activation of the fire suppression systems".

It's also really weird that they managed to get last Monday's game up (4th October) but nothing since. To say it's beginning to look a bit unprofessional would be quite an understatement.

Re: Countdown on All 4
The loss of subtitles means I'm missing most of what's being said - for example Anne starts with "today is (????) (?????) day" and Rachel responds, but I can't make out what it's about. Also, unless I've already thought of it, I hardly ever get what dictionary corner have found if Rachel doesn't put it up, nor do I understand Susie's special spot

Re: Countdown on All 4
Same here, haven't seen any episodes from the 1st of October episode onwards (I don't want to watch the 4th of October episode listed when I haven't seen the 1st of October one yet), Channel 4 have made a complete Horlicks of it all, just when it was getting exciting.Gavin Chipper wrote: ↑Tue Oct 05, 2021 10:56 am I haven't been able to watch yesterday's (Mon 4/10/21) game because it hasn't appeared on All 4.

Re: Countdown on All 4
No problems on Channel 4 (ie real television) apart from the subtitles issue.
I thought I was good at Countdown until I joined this forum

Re: Countdown on All 4
I've just seen they've got the new shows on All 4 now. Well everything from Thursday 14th October, but still a big gap after Monday 4th.

Re: Countdown on All 4
They'll be showing the 5th of October episode tomorrow on Channel 4 at 6.05am. I presume they'll be showing the episodes after that in that time slot on following days.Gavin Chipper wrote: ↑Fri Oct 22, 2021 9:51 pm I've just seen they've got the new shows on All 4 now.

Re: Countdown on All 4
Cool. By the way, I was going to watch today's episode on 4+1, but it was just a frozen screen for ages so I gave up and watched a couple of the ones that actually are on All 4.Jojo Apollo wrote: ↑Wed Oct 27, 2021 3:01 pmThey'll be showing the 5th of October episode tomorrow on Channel 4 at 6.05am.

Re: Countdown on All 4
Last Friday's game still isn't up even though I think they eventually showed it. And bizarrely neither is yesterday's. What a shitshow.
Re: Countdown on All 4
Actually they have been uploaded now, and so has Stu’s 8th game I’m pleased to say (indicated by the time slot first shown, 6:10 am). I have the iPad version.

Ofcom is investigating Channel 4 over the burnt toast incident.

Re: Countdown on All 4
They haven't uploaded this Wednesday's game (25th May). Rumours suggest that it was caused by someone not eating their Weetabix quickly enough causing it to go all soggy.

Some eps are missing subtitles.

Re: Countdown on All 4
So as usual, when there's an episode I'm unable to watch "live" or on +1, they don't bother to put it on All 4. Absolute shitshow.

Re: Countdown on All 4
I watched today's show live so it's up already.
Re: Countdown on All 4
As of writing this comment, the 13 June 2022 canned be streamed, but can be watched offline after downloading it. Very strange.

Re: Countdown on All 4
As far as I can see, the CoC final that replaced the 8th June game isn't up. Presumably if they do put it up they'll hide it right at the bottom of the chronological list because they're a bunch of amateurs.
