Really well played, it takes a lot to get to the final two! Unlucky with the fall of the questions in my opinion, particularly all the pop music ones you had to face. My favourite was "Nelly..." "...Spears!" *facepalm*

Ryan Taylor

Nice one Nikki! Great steal on the conundrum woohoo!!

Ryan Taylor

Awesome trophy! FWIW Michael I'd be jizz-in-my-pants-excited if I were coming as it sounds like the beastiest co-event yet (Sorry Neb!) Haha. You realise the beauty of having it in a pub is that everyone will get drunk and no-one will notice everything falls apart at the seams, right? And then I'll...

New rule: Ryan always has to explain the association. (Unless he's posting pictures of raccoons.) Haha. I tried to start this and it just got ignored! I think the Homer one - cartoon of a raccoon to a cartoon of a man, i.e. Homer. That's just about ok with me. Not sure how we go from hot pussy to a...

I think the whole thing is a complete joke and should just be put to bed and deleted. Arseholes.

And did Ashman used to be a taxi driver?

My guess is that Lesley was referring to Fred Housego who is one of the more famous winners of 'Mastermind'. Fred was a taxi driver. From Egghead episodes I believe Ashman was a civil servant.

Did you ever work out why it was called the Kangaroo? 'cos I never did.

No. I thought it was Australian or something at the time. Needless to say, I did shit in it.

To give you a very boring but detailed response, here goes: 9 year old winner of 25m breatstroke for South Holderness Swimming Club. I was the last winner of this trophy (in 2000) and so got to keep it. (Apparently I STILL hold the club record too!) U11's 50m breastroke trophy from the Grimsby club ...

I have time neough on my hands to recap. Although I have no idea what to do or how to do it so that could be a problem. But I am available.

Ryan Taylor

Thanks Ryan. I would thank you too Marc but you've not exactly been forthcoming with the details. No problem, although I may have got the challengers name wrong. He had a surname like McAulay or something, he was Scottish and played golf with handicap of 18. But yeah his name escapes me. You missed...

1. Who is Andrew? Challenger? 2. Howard on the conundrum I presume? If so, :) 3. Final scores? Nikki wins? Snooker took precedence today. Andrew challenger I think, who had a daughter who had been on before in 2005 or something. Yes Howard got GUARDSMAN (so did JP apparently). Nikki won like 85-60 ...

ASSONATE was available in round 1 as DC beater. Good one Howard!

Unlucky, Phil. Might be worth asking Damian for another go while he's in a good mood. Thanks David :) but luck doesn't enter into it. I was beaten by a good player and, perhaps more importantly, someone who plays more consistently than I do. Neither of us was ever going to get words like NARDOOS an...

Ryan Taylor

Wow this was a surprise to wake up to. I had no idea all this hate existed but that is because I am relatively new to the whole forum and "Countdown community" thing. FWIW when I met Charlie, despite being southern, I liked him and he has created one cool site in apterous. If apterous didn...

Ryan Taylor

Great game which I thought it would be. Unlucky to lose on a crucial conundrum. A-lol at what you said at the end!

Ryan Taylor

This just got a whole lot weirder.

I don't understand any of these posts

Jeff can't count.

PARGETED too in round 6

POGOES also a DC beater in round 1.
NARDOOS as DC beater in round 4.

Ryan Taylor

Had no idea Phil was going to be on so this is a good surprise. I am uber excited for this episode now. In fact, I'm going to deliver those papers so that I am back in good time for the show! Good luck Phil (although yesterday's challenger was very good especially since it was the first show, nerves...

I thought the whole thing was very funny. More. More. MORE!!!!!

Ryan Taylor

Well I don't see any other answer. Suppose abcd is the smaller, and dcba is the larger. a must be even, since it's the last digit of a number which is twice another. a is also the first digit of the smaller number, so a must be 0, 2 or 4 Looking at the units digits of the multiplication by 2: if a ...

I'm interested how you go about working something like this out? The only method I would have is trial and error which would take ages.
