I was quite surprised that they had to bleep that. It's not really offensive these days, is it? Might be something to do with it being the school holidays? Anyway to the game really disapointed for Paul as really got to like him over the last few games, but he's got at least half a chance of coming...

Douglas Wilson

Surely if the scrabbler was that good they wouldn't have put him in a position where he will face Davies in his run. Damien was on apterous regularly at the time so would know how could Chris was even if he didn't excel at the audition, so surely the players we see in the next few days and during hi...

Douglas Wilson

No it's a practical joke Jason.

Douglas Wilson

Forgot to mention I had ESTROGEN in Round One, not sure if it's an American spelling can anyone shed any light?

Douglas Wilson

He's my joint second favourite player of this series with Nilesh and Babs Speak.

Hulme is my favourite purely because he's a dead ringer for the barman at my local.

Douglas Wilson

That's cool Oliver, what was he like in person?

When are you on the show also?

Douglas Wilson

This isn't a dig because Paul comes across as a really nice, personable guy; but if he becomes an octochamp surely he will be one of the worst in recent times?

Douglas Wilson

EMITTING - Round 7

Douglas Wilson

Due to unforseen circumstances I won't be able to run this, feel free to let someone else take over.

Douglas Wilson

So far we have:

Kirk Bevins
Matthew Green
Jason Larsen
Sue Saunders

Looking for 2-4 more and we'l get this going.

I thought we'd established that people who are good at Countdown tend not to have lovers?

Hillarious, do you want to be involved?

Douglas Wilson

Well since you were the first to confirm then you are definitely in Sue and will be imune from eviction for the first one.

Keep the applications coming by PM or replying to this, looking for between 6-8 contestents plus a few standbys.

Douglas Wilson

Can I count you in Sue?

Douglas Wilson

Cheers.

Douglas Wilson

I am running a Big Brother style reality show with Countdown contestants and lovers, there will be nominations, evictions and tasks.

PM or reply to this topic if you would like to be considered.

Douglas Wilson

I've edited my orginal post, as my mistake was pointed out to me.

Can you delete your's?

Douglas Wilson

I first came across her when I realised her show was the only one from the series I hadn't seen. When a few people mentioned she was a bit of a character on her I wanted to see it even more, had no sucess so read her report on the website. It was a great read, showing someone who went on Countdown t...

Douglas Wilson

To be fair it rarely starts before 15.26 and rarely ends after 4.10, so I'm sure there won't be any less time for the broadcast. Isn't Chris Davies on next week? You are right about the timing. It never finishes anywhere near 4:15! I record it on Sky+ and have the option of adding an extra 5 minute...

I can't stop you but, seriously, just keep it to yourself.

Deal

Douglas Wilson

If the information is about Sudbery or if it is Sudbery that PMs?

Douglas Wilson

Ah ok it looks like I'll be keeping my information to myself then which I have no problem about. I just thought it might be an idea to stop accidnetal spoilers by having a dedicated topic.

Having seen this thread if (and a big if) somebody PM's me asking for my information, am I allowed to tell then?

Douglas Wilson

Like I said to Jon, that's cool.

You havn't answered my question though, do you think it would be a good idea to have a dedicated thread to future spoilers just so that implied/accidental spoilers are less frequent?

Douglas Wilson

Hi Jon, If that's the rule then that is fine and I will obviously respect that. The reason I asked was because on the Deal or no Deal forum there is a thread specifically for spoilers, I thought the advantage of this; as well as informing people that want to know for whatever reason, is that it woul...

Douglas Wilson

Just wanted to know exactly what you can and cannot post. I know how a future contestent does because of a friend that went to see the shows they were in, am I allowed to post it on here as long as I give a huge warning in the title? Would we be able to have a thread for people who know about future...

Douglas Wilson

To be fair it rarely starts before 15.26 and rarely ends after 4.10, so I'm sure there won't be any less time for the broadcast.

Isn't Chris Davies on next week?

Douglas Wilson

Surely the shot is a punishment and thus you should avoid the shot if you do get it?

Douglas Wilson

Thanks Kirk for clearing that up, Ian I did not know that but sorry if that's how you felt. Is their a different pass mark at the auditions for different groups? As in because a lot of young males go on the show they have too score higher at the audition. I can't believe Babs Speak got on the show a...

Douglas Wilson

A few questions:

1) Roughly how many people currently watch Countdown?
2) Roughly when were viewing figures at their highest?
3) Roughly when were they at their lowest?

Douglas Wilson

What is excellent Jason?

Douglas Wilson

Why can't we just get on Charlie?

Douglas Wilson

Cheers Matt, I'm looking forward too seeing what this month's featured article is.

Douglas Wilson

Countdown Wiki? I just went onto the site too have a little pootle round as I often do, maybe even read this month's (and last's and the one before and the one before that's) featured article on 'gandiseeg'; and all I found was a fake smiling blonde who definitely wouldn't know what a tangelo is. An...

Douglas Wilson

Why are you being so cryptic Ian?

I just want too know when you're recording/transmitting.

Douglas Wilson

Who is mean?

Douglas Wilson

When will you be recording/transmitting Ian, since you were at the same audition is Jeff and Ollie?

Douglas Wilson

I thought it was cool (and liked my mention), eventhough it seems I've got a reputation for being a serial moaner!

The Q&A with a Countdown 'legend', sounds like a good idea for future broadcasts.

When will the next one be?

Douglas Wilson

Good shout Liam, but he hasn't been active on the forum since last Friday.

Unless he has duplicate accounts!

Douglas Wilson

Who on earth voted for Jimmy?

His green shirt was unforgivable.

Douglas Wilson

Vote away!

Douglas Wilson

This would be my dream finals: Quarters DoD v Sudbery (Sudbery to win) Matthew Green v Kirk (Green to win) Richard Brittain v Charlie Reams (Brittain to win) Jon O'Neill v Hansford (O'Neill to win on a crucial) Semis Sudbery beats Green Brittain beats O'Neill Then I wouldn't give a hoot who wins the...

Douglas Wilson

FAO Jeff, Darren and Tony

When are your (and in Tony's case your wife's) shows transmitting?

Douglas Wilson

Douglas Wilson

Today's player has got to be up there with the worst ever.

Douglas Wilson

RUDENESS for an equaller in round 3.

DICKY for a contestant beater in round 12.

Douglas Wilson

Based on apterous performance then Dinos or Chris Kirby.

Douglas Wilson

Currently Andrew is on for 958, do you think he can break the record.

(Please move if we're not allowed to discuss very recent shows outside of the spoliers section.)

Douglas Wilson

It depends on whether you mean 'best player' based on their performance on the show or since.

If it's on the show then I fail to see how it is PH when Corby, Hurrell and Briers all out scored him in the heats and also didn't reach the final.

Douglas Wilson

Charlie wrote up an experience? No one said anything in the past..

Douglas Wilson

On her website she has written a detailed account of her experience of the show. She mentions how distraught she was after losing.

Douglas Wilson

Ignorance of what? Your posting history? Fair enough, I'll hold my hands up on that one. :? You don't have that many posts, and the majority lately seemed to have been about a player you didn't seem to know anything about, hadn't seen, but then seemed to like enough to start a thread about getting ...

Douglas Wilson

So you think a women being reduced to tears is 'freaking hilarious'. What a twat you are. Congratulations, you're a sexist. PS You stopped replying to our last argument after about 12 people completely rinsed you. I hope you're not going to pussy out this time as well. I must admit in that topic I ...

Douglas Wilson

So you think a women being reduced to tears is 'freaking hilarious'. What a twat you are. In certain circumstances, sure, why not? Thanks for your comments though. What is your connection to Ms Sudbery by the way? You turn up here "out of the blue" (as it were) asking to see her episode, ...

Douglas Wilson

Jason, thats hilarious. You're like the Milli Vanilli of Countdown. Sort of. Clare, no offence (well actually, maybe a little), but if you ever went back on the show after losing easily despite having apterous and being 40+ then I think i would actually write a formal letter of complaint to Channel...

Douglas Wilson

Had Innis' competitor been on a tv quiz before, I'm sure I recognised him from somewhere?

Douglas Wilson

The general rule / train of thought behind the second-chancers theory is that it should / will only include people who lost first time around and who weren't altogether prepared for what came their way. Really keen on sticking to this, so anyone from the last 5 or 6 years who's been on and won a fe...

Douglas Wilson

Did anyone hear, apparently Charlie sent one in...

Douglas Wilson

This thread was just started for fun (although I would like to see all 3 given another go).

Could realistically Dinos get another crack seeing as he did win 3 shows?

Douglas Wilson

By the title I don't mean bring back Kirk and Conor etc for specials, I mean players that lost a couple of games and have significantly improved or were just unlucky on their first game. To keep it loose you can nominate anyone who didn't get to the series finals. My nominations would be: Dinos, Sud...

Douglas Wilson

Anyone been able to find this episode, really want to see it.

Douglas Wilson

I was just chatting to a friend who was at a Countdown recording a few weeks ago. They told me the show they saw transmits on 28th August, which for some reason rang a bell to me. I've now remembered that is the transmission date of Chris Davies' first show. I rang my friend back and asked what Chri...
