Hi Matt, Great selection of conundrums. I've attempted them all, but think a few are wrong. I've spent 15 mins on them. 1 LIONHEART 2 BREADSHOW? (I didn't know sowbread stemmed with h) 3 VIBRATILE 4 ARYTENOID 5a MANDOLINO 5b PERIODATE 6 RAINMAKER 7 DEMAGOGIC 8 ADVERGAME 9 MEDIFRAUD 10 OUTREASON 11 B...

R? ROTALIID as a beater to dilator.

Plaudite as a beater in Round 13.

Agh, what a knob. He was the standby for my run - wish Lee had acted on his wish to run away before our game so I could have twatted him (and Lee could have had a proper run). Sorry you had to face that :/ but yeah. Realised I never welcomed you so yeah, enjoy your stay here. :lol: Thanks, I didn't...

I'm not entirely convinced that most of the top players know the meanings of any of the words they declare. I'm an average player, but I like to learn the definitions of new, obscure words that I have learnt. I find them easier to learn this way & you are also prepared for the inevitable fit of...

Most #FashionWatch2k15y contestant: Hazel Drury for bringing back the flowery headband.

I know it's a bit late, but thanks Jen!

Thanks Jen! Anthony Poulton-Smith's attitude was beginning to get tedious towards the end of the game. :roll: Forgot to mention that Anthony kept trying to flog his books (about place names), to anyone who would listen. He was bragging about his 72 books to Nick, but Nick misheard this and thought t...

Somehow I think this is oddly amusing given that the conundrum in that game was SOCIOPATH...

Yeah, it was a bit ironic!

Thanks Tim, Good luck in the finals! You did well and I was surprised when you lost. In my last game, I was exhausted, as I had been filming all day. It was the last recording slot of the day & by then my numbers knowledge had completely fallen apart. :( Also, my apponent was quite immature and ...

Thanks Gavin,

I think Thomas was just alluding to the fact that Matthew beat him.

Ooops, yeah that does make sense!

Thanks Thomas, that's grand. I am a shy person, and was worried that I had p!ss€d someone off, with something that I had said - not a good idea, as a Newbie. 'heh' - metamorphosize doesn't really make sense in this context, but I often use longer words, to try to compensate for being dyslexic. What ...

I know, I watched Matthew's preliminaries and the series finals.
My numbers skills were below par, and I said ‘probably’, because the finding of a 9 letter word, could completely metamorphosize the outcome of a round.
Apologies, if my original post was unintentionally written ambiguously.

Thanks Matthew,
That would have been an interesting game, although I think that you would have outclassed me on the numbers and probably the letters too!

Hi everyone, I'm Hazel. I was a (inconsistent) contestant in series 73. I won 4 shows. I am severely dyslexic (sorry for any typos!), but Countdown has helped me to gradually improve my spelling and grammar. :) I was born in Preston, but I moved to Ireland when I was 8, and now I am studying Irish a...
