Honeysuckle Lane sounds like a nice place to live. I'm going to google street view it.

[Scott Gillies]

i can understand that if for some reason you google my name that would come up. but why the fk would james be googling my name? lol. he could've been playing my dad online and he may have mentioned it i suppose then he googled it. Not that i care just thought it was funny and bizarre lol

If you must know, I googled "Countdown", as I always do at work to get on here. It gets me to Mike's "Countdown Page", then onto here. Don't ask why I don't just type this page in on the address bar.

I just happened to check the news stories, but unfortunately hardly any are about the show, since the word "countdown" has obviously many other meanings, but then I saw the name of "Scott Gillies", so I had a read and then pasted it on here.

If you overheard Susie & the DC guest whisper a good word to each other and nobody realised I guess you could claim it. "In the rules" though? Of course not.

That happened to me. After about five seconds the DC guest whispered a word so loudly that my opponent in the challenger's chair heard it as well as me. It threw me a little, and by the end of 30 seconds I still had nothing else to equal or better it. I decided that it was a word I would probably have got anyway, and I shouldn't be penalised for something that wasn't my doing, so I went with it. Fortunately, perhaps, justice was done as my opponent had a better word.

I'm pretty sure I never gave a single "not written down" solution, but I don't think I'd have any qualms about doing things that Jon, and a lot of others, would call cheating. So long as you don't hesitate for even a split second I think it's OK, which is pretty low on the ethics scale compared to some. The one I object to is the people who have a long think before deciding whether to risk a dodgy word or not. Just because you've written a few words down you don't get a bit more time to decide which one to go with.

This happened to me several times, and fortunately I always had something at least as good already, so I just hoped my opponent hadn't heard. The only one that really cost me was the series final, where I had MISCOUNT and COUNTIES which would have won the round, and then Susie said "MISCOUNT???" really loudly and the round had to be retaken But Junaid owned up to having heard it, so for that great act of sportsmanship, overall justice was done once again.

Really? You probably would've won that round but you didn't win the re-taken round, did you?

[Charlie Reams]

No I didn't, but Junaid's honesty was rewarded when he won the game.

I see what you mean. But you probably would've done the same thing, altruism being what it is.

One does wonder why Dictionary Corner can't just write words down rather than whisper to each other. Maybe your typical celebrity doesn't read or write so well.

When Susie does that, you get your "SEABED" moments and it's no less embarrassing.

I always wondered why one of Victoria Mather's phrases on apterous is just 'Seabed' - what happened there?

Apparently she pronounced it like the past tense of the verb SEAB. I don't know who Victoria Mather is.

Best bit of the whole show. Didn't Susie once say that when she was first on the show she asked a contestant to spell a word that she hadn't quite heard, and then started looking up DOING as if it was a variant on DING or DONG?
