Episode COYORK201973

From Countdown

Episode COYORK201973 was played on 13 April 2019, as the grand final of Co:York 2019.

Edward Byrne played Callum Todd, with Callum Todd winning 107 – 89. The hosts were George Armstrong and Tracey Mills.

With very little to separate the two finalists throughout, a crucial conundrum always looked likely. With a point in it going into the final numbers, Todd must have hoped his 6 small pick wouldn't generate an impossible target!

Due to a controversy where Byrne buzzed more-or-less on the bong and there was some consternation as to whether this was in time or not (although the video footage listed below appears to indicate Byrne's buzz was out of time), the conundrum was thrown out and replayed.

The conundrums can be seen on the following link: Co:York crucial conundrums.
