So, this is the 4,998th edition of Countdown, if you believe Damian, the 5,001st episode if you believe the Wiki, or if you read The Daily Telegraph, the 4,999th show.

Or if you're a normal person, it's Wednesday's episode today.

Dave Wilkinson remains the champ and a win today could propel him into the rankings. Interestingly, the Wiki says that Oliver Garner has already qualified for the finals, so who will the other 7 joining him be

I'll be along with the recap later.

Although, anyone who supports Blackpool F.C. isn't normal anyway, no matter how many teams they beat 5-1.

Just think what Huddersfield would give to be 7th in the Championship.

Enjoy Spotland next term.

Nah, I think I'll enjoy Bloomfield Road next season, Damian. The only way is up for the Terriers.

And if Blackpool somehow get promoted this season, I don't know what I'd do. Couple that with Burnley staying up would just about stop time.

BOYISH as a contestant beater.

Please say 'FIVE'

PICRATE as a beater.

PICRATE in round 4.

Or PARETIC

Damn, no GRADIATE.

I saw ASSONATE in one of the rounds. It's in the NODE.

PALOMINO for the horse lovers

MORONIC seems appropriate

Whale oil beef hooked.

Tendrils in Round 13 as a DC beater.

I remember being in the audience for this, getting DOCKAGE, and thinking "Yay, I listened!"

Got tendrils and picrate as DC beaters. Was very impressed by ISOHYET, I also had OBESITY which was fitting, as the challenger was talking about obesity at the beginning.

I was amused by the guy in the audience who was so ashamed to be seen on television in the Countdown audience that he covered his face up! His wife (sat next to him, I assume she is his wife) also seemed to find this funny.

Maybe he was chucking a sickie.

Think you might've answered your own question there...

Edwin Mead should have wrote:His wife (I assume she is his wife as she was sat next to him)

Most women I sit next to are my wife.
