the conundrum board - is it really automated?
on Mike Browns countdown page it says that "Kathy Hytner turned the conundrum board until it became automated at the start of series 8"
but is the conundrum board really automated in that its activated by the start of the clock or is their a man (aka stagehand) round the back?

Re: the letters and numbers cards used on the programme
just thought
what ever happened to the old cards that were used in previous eras of the show, are they kept or are they thrown in the bin?

Re: Countdown specials: The Secret's Out
i thought these specials might be in case channel four get the cricket back and it finishes early
i remember when it happened the first time in 1999 and turned the tv on at about round 3 of the 100 countdown - id love to see it again
