Spoilers For Tuesday December 7th 2010

[James Robinson]

COUNTDOWN: F MINUS 2

Ooooooooh, the tension is getting unbearable as the finals are now less than 50 hours away.

Although, if the finals are going to have as much tension as the end of yesterday's game, then we should be in for a treat.

Denise remains the champion after winning the first tie-break show in 160 episodes of Countdown.

Can she reach half-octochampdom today

Ryan will be around with today's and yesterday's recaps later.

[Richard Priest]

HELICON.

[Martin Bishop]

First numbers, in the 30 secs.

((75*7)-10-8-8)*2

[Gavin Chipper]

(75*7-10-8-8)*2=998 in round 5.

Edit - too slow again

[Peter Mabey]

TESSERA to equal DC

[Karen Pearson]

CHOLINE as a DC beater somewhere around Round 3 or 4 I think.

[Josh Hurst]

PATONCE as a beater in round 12.

[James Robinson]

Interestingly, that's the first time in nearly 15 years that there have been consecutive games needing tie-break conundrums.

Could we be on for a record-breaking 3rd tomorrow

That's pretty cool, because I was actually thinking that it might have been a first having 2 tie break conundrums in a row. Here's hoping for a third!

[Richard Priest]

Thought the first conundrum scramble was a nice way of welcoming new associate producer Sioux Sharp to the team.
