Countdown in Glasgow and CoGlasgowOnThen took place on Saturday 12th and Sunday 13th November 2016, at The Raven in Glasgow. They were won by Series 61 finalist Innis Carson - his fifth successive Scottish tournament win - and James Robinson respectively.

They were the second and third Countdown tournaments to be held in Glasgow, after 2015’s Countdown in Glasgow, also won by Carson. Robinson became the first player apart from Carson to win a tournament in Scotland.

GlasgowOnThen was a 'weakest link' style tournament, in which four rounds of letters were played and one round of numbers per 'game', before the lowest scoring players faced sudden death conundrums until one person had been knocked out during that round.
