BACKGROUND
Countdown is the channel’s longest running show and the first show ever broadcast on Channel 4 when it launched 40 years ago, in November 1982. The original version of Channel 4's Countdown is the French television programme « Des chiffres et des lettres » (literally "numbers and letters"), where the Numbers Round is referred to as « Le compte est bon » ("the total is right"). The show debuted in 1965 as « Le mot le plus long » using letters only, and reached its present format in 1972. This year marks the shows 51st anniversary.

SPIN-OFF
"8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown" is hosted by Jimmy Carr, with Rachel Riley and Susie Dent assuming their Countdown roles. The formation of the crossover with "8 Out if 10 Cats" began as a series of specials, the first of which was broadcast on 2 January 2012, when Channel 4 orchestrated a special "mash-up night", merging two shows to form a special edition of the pair, as part of its 30th-anniversary celebrations eleven years ago.

723: couldn't get closer than 725, although I did it by (100 - 10) * 8 + 5 = 725
584: did it a slightly different way than in the video: 6 * 4 - 1 = 23 ; 23 * 25 = 575 ; 575 + 9 = 584.
932: only found 935 by going 25 * 6 * 6 = 900, (5 * 7) = 35, 900 + 35 = 935
575: same way as in the video.
For 723 I did (100 - 10) * 8 to get 720, and then 50 / (5 * 5) to get a 2 to add on for 722
6*8=48, +9-7=50, *10=500, +75=575
575:
75*7=525
6-(9-8)=5
5*10=50
525+50=575
932:
25 * 6 = 150
(150 + 7) * 6 = 942
942 - (50 / 5) = 932
932:
25 - 6 = 19
50 * 19 = 950
7 + 6 + 5 = 18
950 - 18 = 932
25 * 5 = 125
6 / 6 = 1
125 + 1 = 126
126 * 7 = 882
882 + 50 = 932
25 * 6 = 150
150 + 7 = 157
157 * 6 = 942
50 / 5 = 10
942 - 10 = 932
10-8 = 2 100+50 = 150-5 = 145X5 = 725-2 = 723
9X6 = 54 7+1 = 8X25 = 200-54 = 146X4 = 584
6X4 = 24-1 = 23X25 = 575+9 = 584
25-5 = 20X6 = 120+6 = 126X7 = 882+50 = 932
7+6+5 = 18 25-6 = 19X50 = 950-18 = 932
75+6 = 81X7 = 567+8 = 575
8X7 = 56+9 = 65X10 = 650-75 = 575
723:
100 + 50 - 5 = 145
145 * 5 = 725
10 - 8 = 2
725 - 2 = 723
725 = 5 x (100 + 50 - 5) - 10 + 8...same as Rachel but more than the 2 seconds she took
584 same as player
575 = 8 x 7 x 10 + 9 + 6
Good thing Nathan Lyon used his time in England for something other than cricket
