Spoilers for Friday June 26th 2015 (S73 P6)

Post by Jordan F »

Rhys Benjamin has gotten 5 wins so far. Can he end the week with a 6th, and at least a decent chance of making the finals as a result?

Join Anthony for the recap later.

BRIQUETS as an alt to REQUITES

You could tell from Rachel's voice that she got 832 as she announced the target.

TAILORESS in round... whatever the round after the break was.

Nice - new in ODO.

Sad to see Reece go, but presumably that was a morning after the night before show.

Pat looks like he might win a few though too.

Well done on your 5 wins, Rhys, go away and practice the letters a bit more, then come back in 5 years or so and blow everyone away (figuratively speaking of course!)

OUTLINES, TRAPEZIUM, and 831 would have got me the win, which annoys me a little. I had OUTLINES the day before, had writtten down TRAP, and was so busy looking for 832 that I completely overlooked the easy 831. I chatted with Rachel afterwards about this and she understood what I meant, she's done it sometimes too.

Pat was certainly the most confident opponent I faced.

5 wins and 494 may or may not be enough to get back for the finals, and I now face an agonising wait...

Nick kept getting Joe's name wrong ("Macclederry") and this became slightly annoying.

If they're reading this, I'd like to thank everyone at Countdown for the experience and making it enjoyable. Apart from Damian, who mocked me constantly over JAILBAKER, SPONDERED, and Fulham...

Unlucky Rhys! Shame you overlooked the easy 831 and the easy 832! ;)
