Dream Game

Derek Hazell · Post by **Derek Hazell** » Wed Jul 08, 2009 12:35 pm

As a companion to the Contestants You'd Like To See Given Another Go thread, who would be the contestants in your dream game? It can be sensible (Conor vs. Kai or Eoin vs. Callum), silly (Hamish Williamson vs. Dundas Keating), or obvious (Amey Deshpande vs. Joseph Bolas or the Charlie Reams/Junaid Mubeen decider). Just like real dreams really. If dreams are real.

Would that be Todd Carty or the guy who looked like Gripper Stebson who threw a 6 off Beachy Head

Agreed.

I reckon Susie against one of the champs (Kirk etc.) could be pretty exciting- I think it would be a pretty good idea to have a Countdown special where Susie takes on a different champion/runner-up etc. each round, with Rachel facing off against numbers specialists such as Junaid in the numbers.

It might finally put to rest the idea that Susie doesn't get any of the words herself, although I think putting anyone against Kirk would probably be fairly unflattering.

Jeff Stelling v Rachel Riley - in a way the sequel to when Richard Whiteley played Carol Vorderman all those Christmases ago.

Have Damian presenting the show, Susie takes over Rachel's job. Get Alison Heard in for Susie and have Chris Kamara in Dictionary Corner.

Surely the perfect show

Junaid Mubeen · Post by **Junaid Mubeen** » Wed Jul 08, 2009 2:54 pm

Harvey Freeman vs Julian Fell

My dream opponent would be Allan Saldhana, but I'd probably spend the whole show just sitting there silently in awe.

Ok, a slightly inebriated Susie against an absolutely hammered Kirk just to spice things up a bit.

Yeah, don't see why not. In dreams I quite often get the sensation of simultaneously participating and observing. Well, in all the best ones anyway.

I did have a vague dream of playing Corby in the CoC final but those utter bastards Reams and Briers had other ideas.

Jimmy Gough vs Neil Zussman
Richard Pay vs Michael Calder with Kirk vs Andrew straight after

Matthew Green · Post by **Matthew Green** » Wed Jul 08, 2009 10:46 pm

I reckon Hansford vs Jon Davies would be the most entertaining Countdown match imaginable.

This would be my dream finals:

Quarters

DoD v Sudbery (Sudbery to win)
Matthew Green v Kirk (Green to win)
Richard Brittain v Charlie Reams (Brittain to win)
Jon O'Neill v Hansford (O'Neill to win on a crucial)

Semis

Sudbery beats Green
Brittain beats O'Neill

Then I wouldn't give a hoot who wins the RB V CS final as they're my two favourite players.

Haha awesome. I'd play her and then maybe play Countdown with her afterwards.
