Spoilers for Friday 24th September 2021 (Series 84, Prelim 64)

Post by Philip A »

R3 Alt: 5*100-7*8-3

R4 Two sevens I didn’t get

R5 IDEATUM

R6 Alt: (50+1)*10-100/2-2

R7 OPALINES, but OPALINE = milk-glass which is a mass noun, the plural needs explicit ruling from @Countdown Team

R10 Alts DURZI, DURUM

R11 PLAUDITOR

Studio lighting better in this filming block also. It’s not overlit nor hazy.

There was a numbers that was easier than Rachel made out - 150×3+8 or something.

Still catching up with last week's shows but on 4HD the lighting looks very wishy-washy, I am considering going back to Ch4 standard to see if it makes a difference. Susie's dress in two days time looks fine! :)

Agreed - I think it's the RBM issue, because it's also the same on the title sequence. It's like there's a light grey filter on it.
