    After watching 8OO10CDC so much, I forget that there’s an actual show that’s just Countdown. 😀

      Oh, we don't watch them for the spelling or maths. We watch them to watch people get the spelling and maths wrong, and then judge them whilst pretending we would have gotten them right

      Actually Countdown is derived from a French TV show, Des chiffres et des lettres, which has been running continually since 1965.

    I live in the States and started watching 8 out of 10 Cats does Countdown a couple of years back. And, of course, Susie's on that show, too. I came across this link czcams.com/video/EsAIgVxXeiQ/video.html which is Susie's first appearance on Countdount back in 1992. Even today, she's still lovely as ever.

      ​@@NotoriousWhistler Hello Matt. Super to hear from you. If you are judging Colin by Anne's standards then you may have a point. I'm judging Colin by all the previous Countdown hosts, and he presents as if he is commentating on a Sports match. Okay for a bit, but gets increasingly tiresome.

      @@Clavinovaman Hey Gary, hoping this message find you well. I was just wondering, is ‘do feel free’ a question? Furthermore I think Matt’s comment was indeed enlightening to read: an obvious yet necessary response. I quite like this host, he’s rather humorous and lighthearted, though perhaps that’s my 8OO10C bias speaking; I can see why he could potentially be tiresome for fans of the original show. Hope you don’t mind my feeling free to add my comment! Good day to you.

      @trueaussie9230 Před rokem

      The GAME has an Irish accent?! 😱🤔
      Is that possible?!
      Did you mean the 'game has an Irish theme'?!
      Or perhaps you meant 'why would you (sic) have someone with an Irish accent front a game', hmmm?!
      To ensure clarity of meaning, it's VERY important to ensure the 'modifier' (adverb, adjective) is placed as close as possible to the word / phrase (verb, noun) it is intended to 'modify'.
      Otherwise the sentence risks ending up as just illogical gobbledygook.
