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.

You're back! I've missed your videos so much
Welcome back! You have been missed
579:
50 + 25 - 3 = 72
6 + 2 = 8
72 * 8 = 576
576 + 3 = 579
50 + 6 = 56
56 * 3 = 168
168 + 25 = 193
193 * 3 = 579
50 * 2 = 100
25 + 6 = 31
31 * 3 = 93
100 + 93 = 193
193 * 3 = 597
1. (50+75-5)x6-7=713
2. (100-10)x7+4=634
3. (50x2-3)x6-3=579
4. (25+75)x10-9-9=982
713:
75 + 50 - 5 = 120
120 * 6 = 720
720 - 7 = 713
50 * 5 = 250
250 - 75 = 175
175 * 4 = 700
700 + 7 + 6 = 713
75 + 50 - 7 = 118
118 * 6 = 708
708 + 5 = 713
579. 6+2=8. 25+50-3=72*8=576+3=579
634:
100 - 10 = 90
90 * 7 = 630
630 + 4 = 634
100 + 50 + 10 = 160
160 * 4 = 640
640 + 1 - 7 = 634
50 + 4 = 54
54 * 10 = 540
540 + 100 + 1 - 7 = 634
8 out of 10 cats version of the conundrum... "DRAWNCOCK"
For 634 I did:
(50+4) * 10 = 540
540-7+1+100=634
75 + 50 =125
125 - 7 = 118
118* 6 = 708
708 + 5 = 713
100 + 50 + 10 = 160
160 * 4 = 640
640 - 7 = 633
633 + 1 = 634
only 578 like the contestant
982 like the contestant
and also 984
9 + 4 = 13
13 * 75 = 975
975 + 9 = 984
Commentator's curse indeed - saying that over 98% of 2 large solutions were possible, but then picking one that wasn't!
Oh, and yes, I've seen the stats, 2 large is the most likely to hit the target and score points, followed by 1 large, then 3 large, 4 large, and finally 6 small with the lowest chance (especially in the higher target range).
6 + 4 = 10
10 x 75 = 750
750 - 50 = 700
700 + 7 + 5 = 712 (off by 1)
Another way :
5 + 4 = 9
9 * 75 = 675
675 + 50 = 725
725 - 6 - 7 = 712
75-5 = 70+50 = 120X6 = 720-7 = 713
75X5 = 375 50+7 = 57X6 = 342+375 = 717-4 = 713
100+50+10 = 160X4 = 640-7 = 633+1 = 634
100+4 = 104 7-1 = 6X104 = 624+10 = 634
25+6 = 31X3 = 93 50X2 = 100+93 = 193X3 = 579
50X2 = 100-3 = 97X6 = 582-3 = 579
25X4 = 100X9 = 900+75+9 = 984 (Closest Above)
9+9 = 18 75+25 = 100X10 = 1,000-18 = 982 (Closest Below)
