All the best to him! Have enjoyed his tenure and hope he has a happy retirement...

Well done to him on a successful 10 years on the show, and I hope he enjoys his retirement :)

It's just a shame for him that nobody knew his last day was his last day, that's a crappy way to leave any job.

If Colin became full time host I think that would be great for the show. Let's see though :)

His tweet says he's back in the studio, so must be doing any remaining filming slots this year before finishing for good.

A good opportunity to bring in someone younger

Not that easy to do the opposite to be fair.

I should have said MUCH younger.
Colin Murray fits that bill

Oh wow!

Well, I'm not surprised at that.

When will Nick's contract end?

I think Colin Murray would be great as the permanent host of Countdown! It'll be interesting to see if he remembers me from the last time I was in the studio. He was in Dictionary Corner then. He didn't say a word to me though.
