The Countdown champions' chair seems to be changing as regular as the challengers' chair at the moment. Mark will become the newest person to sit on it today, after beating Norman yesterday.

I wonder if today's challenger will continue this trend.

So, tune it at 3:25pm to see what will happen, having said that, it can sometimes start at 3:26pm, or even 3:24pm. But, any which way, it will be in roughly 2 hours time.

One final note, on behalf of the Spoiler Community, I wish to congratulate Dinos on his performance in last night's The Krypton Factor. Your performance was very exceptional, and even though you didn't win, I think we all think that you're a winner to us.

Cheers mate much appreciated

Man, I'd be pretty annoyed if I hadn't already watched that - you really should only have spoilers relevant to the spoilers thread in here.

If you didn't want to know last nights results:
Chelsea drew 1-1
Celtic lost 1-0
St Mirren are in the League cup final

No. A god would have made it 1 - 0 to Hull.

As much as I hate to say it, a god would have let Chelsea win so as to help prevent the Scum winning another title this year.
I wouldn't mind at all if Arsenal would win the league, that's far preferable to Chelsea or the Scum, but they're just not good enough to maintain a challenge.

As long as "the Scum" don't win the title, I don't mind who wins it.

I just don't want the mighty Terriers to lose their place in history.

Another Aptorite today.
Good luck Jay.

The Woofits were a family of dogs on childrens telly in the eighties.

The conundrum scramble should have been IFNOTNICE in relation to the TTT being INOTNICE.

Well done Jay, good to see another apterite owning a teapot.

Keep up the Call my Bluff style OOW segment...I'm loving it.

Jay had to be a United fan since he has the look of Nemanja Vidic !

Simpler first numbers: (25 - 7) x 8 = 144

I thought mine wasn't too bad.

((8 + 7) x 10) - 7 + 1 = 144.

2nd Numbers Alternative: (4 x 3 x 10) - 1 = 119.

TRIBUTE in round 8 and EMERALD in round 12.

CABILDO, round 6 I think.

I think if anyone complained about Apterous copying Countdown, Charlie could use the "OOW" defence.

Maybe if it was called Susie's Call My Bluff, then they won't be able to complain. Also, I should think that as long as they don't bring in the music, it'll be OK.

Having just seen Dinos on Krypton Factor, I've been waiting a few days to say this.

Was I the only one waiting for Susie to use the foodstuff mass noun rule in round one?
