After I posted about no-one posting 8/10 Cats Does Countdown spoilers threads, I noticed that this wasn't there either (until afterwards)!

(50-4)*(7-1) was a neater way to get 276. Rachel's way was very clunky. An aesthetic abomination.

'Another' must be one of the most common words to be missed.
Did anyone get any of Rachel's 1 away in the impossible numbers round? I see nothing on the recap.

Round 6: 1, 1, 2, 3, 25, 75. Target: 367.
Seeing they're not on the recap and there's a question there, here's my methods:
(((25 - 1) x 2) + 75 x 3) - 1 = 368
(((25 - 1) x 2) + 75 - 1) x 3 = 366
