So, the mashup of all mashups has returned to our screens.

Yes, loved by some, derided by others, it is nevertheless, one of the most popular shows in Channel 4's arsenal at the moment, and tonight, it's back for the start of its 3rd series.

The usual captains, Sean Lock and Jon Richardson are back, this time with 2 debutants to the world of Countdown in comedienne, Roisin Conaty and TV presenter, Jonathan Ross.

Back in DC for a 2nd time is Irish comedian, David O'Doherty, and no doubt the frizzy haired beardy one (whose name isn't worth mentioning) will be "helping" Rachel later.

Join James Laverty for the recap later on.

Rachel Riley has done the funniest joke so far. Me no likey.

RECRUIT as an equaller in R1.

Alt 1st numbers (25+10)x8+100+7

Sean declared FITTER. The fact that he hadn't written it down should only come into play if someone else had declared it. The fact that he talked them out of giving him the points is just crazy. Him for doing it and them for forgetting he isn't the game's judge.

Alt 2nd nos 8x50-75-9 or 3x100+75-50-9

More than made up for it with the 10 points from the fudged numbers. This is a serious game.

Are they allowed a go each so two per team? I dunno how it works.
