This year's final?

Post by David Roe »

Can anyone please tell me the date of this year's first season final? Presumably late June, but when exactly? Thanks in advance.

I assume it's going to be on a Friday, so most likely either 17 or 24 June.
I'm not dead yet. In a rut right now because of stress from work. I'll be back later in S89. I also plan to bring back the Mastergram - if I can find a way to run a timer or clock through pure MediaWiki without having to upload to Vimeo every time.

As has been mentioned in other places already, information passed onto me suggests that the final will actually be on June 3rd, quite earlier than normal, although until they're recorded on May 11th, we won't know the full story I suppose. :roll:

Just had it confirmed via my internal sources, the final of Series 64 is definitely being broadcast on June 3.

Ah cock! Got my first (and last, woop!) uni exam that day from 2pm until 3.30pm. Guess I'll just have to go to the studio to watch it live then instead, and celebrate finishing uni by NOT watching Countdown. Wonder what I'll do instead? Although, I'm pretty sure I can persuade them to put the 2nd half on the TV's in the SU to make me look super special when I get all the maxes having seen Ed get them whilst dominating Adam a few weeks before.

I think I meant to make an "internal sauces" joke before but forgot.

Do you mean the one about James Robinson masturbating over his Countdown calendar and his 'internal sauces' landing on the square marked June 3rd?

Who's going to watch the recordings? I'm there on May 11th for the last two quarters, the semis and the final. Can't choose between my 'epic cunt' or 'I conquered the world by winning Countdown' T-shirts though. ;)
