Celebrity Countdown was a short-lived series in 1998 that, as the title suggests, pitted celebrities against each other in a game of Countdown. The format used was a shortened version of then then-standard 9 round format- dropping a letters game from each half to reduce the total number of rounds to 7. This format had also been used in the special game played on Christmas Day 1997 between Richard Whiteley and Carol Vorderman- that show is often credited as part of the celebrity series. The show was broadcast on Thursday evenings, but only lasted for eight episodes.
