Spoilers For Monday July 20th 2015

Post by James Robinson »

So, we're back for another full week of Countdown, and having just missed out on crowning our first octochamp of the series last week, is the man who denied us that chance going to himself become an octochamp by the end of the week :? :?:

Liam Moloney has had 3 good centuries (which also happen to be the 3 highest scores of the series so far), can he win all 5 shows this week (including a possible matchup with Dave Noble tomorrow) to be an octochamp :?:

Jenny Eclair is in DC today, before Michael Buerk makes his début tomorrow.

Join Andy for the recap later. ;) :) :D

Wow well done to Liam for that studio-max/13-max game.

Only missed longer words in the ratters round and the meiosis round.

Yeah, quite staggering, those were the only 2 I missed as well (especially annoyed with the first one).

LOWANS in round 4 and ENCOMIA in round 7.

Odd that Susie had never heard of meiosis. Pretty basic level biology, and even if you somehow missed it at school it seems likely that you'd encounter it reading about pregnancy or something.

Also I assume that challenger (forgot his name sorry - Craig?) was asked to spell POMACE but it was edited out - that came across as particularly harsh on the broadcast! (not that it mattered pointwise, of course).
