Noticed consistently over a few months that you keep editing the same page multiple times in a short period of time...please make sure what you want to add/delete is ALL there and then click "Save Page". It's annoying, a bad habit and I hope you can stop it... - RLSJ1997 (16 July 2017)

Celebrity Countdown trailer

Hi Phil. Do you know who the chap between Jo Brand and Colin Murray six seconds into the Celebrity Countdown trailer is? I've come to you because you've commented on that video.--Launchballer 15:22, 1 January 2020 (UTC)

Hi there. I have no idea, I’m afraid. McLarenguy22

Consequences of Rachel's maternity leave

Where did you get the information for the most recent edit to Series 82?--Launchballer 15:22, 14 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi. I only heard this through word of mouth on Apterous: I know her pregnancy meant that filming had to be stockpiled, but cannot find any reliable, secondary sources I’m afraid.

No worries. Is it anywhere I can see it? I'm unfamiliar with the forums.--Launchballer 17:10, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
Can you give me a reliable source or link please I need verification from someone at c4 until I can have it reinstated, in the meanwhile I’ve protected the page, I’m not saying it’s a lie I can’t let anything go to chance. MartinS 17:13, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
Yep that’s fine. I see no factual/reliable source yet so I think the best thing to do is to contact the Countdown team if at all possible. I’m sure they and regular audience attendees will know.
Ahem. I've unprotected the page - protection should only really be used as a last resort.--Launchballer 20:08, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
Damian Eadie announced what will happen with Countdown filming at 16:40 (Sunday 15th March) on Apterous. The link might not work u less you’re an auto-logging-in Apterite, but here it is anyway. https://www.apterous.org/chat.php?base=1584289997
I'm sorry, which one is Damian Eadie?--Launchballer 18:09, 15 March 2020 (UTC)
John Beresford.

It now looks like filming of Countdown is completely and utterly off for the foreseeable future. https://www.apterous.org/chat.php?base=1584749903

Bummer. Have they thought about rationing episodes like they're doing with Hollyoaks?--Launchballer 22:51, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
May you upload a picture again please MartinS 10:32, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

Programmes

You were right to change the spelling to 'programmes', see this Grammarly article.--Launchballer 12:58, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

My fault; I simply had no idea so guessed. The Doctor 22:12, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

ZoomDown

That comment you made in Episode ZD8 was far too trivial, two Q’s have come up in a couple of 15 round games (I can’t name them off the top of my head), please just leave it. Racinggeek21 10:46, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

Sorry about that, will avoid in future. Mclarenguy22 12:46, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

Erm, you've been on this site how long? Philip's comment was perfectly reasonable, so you can drop the pretentiousness. Comment reinstated Brahag16 13:25, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
I really should assume no faith rather than assume good faith, because I keep initially thinking the new socks are just really over-enthusiastic. I have now blocked.--Launchballer 12:44, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

Pictures

Pictures not displaying properly are not broken. According to Charlie, "it seems there's a bug in the wiki software which sometimes causes it to choke on image resizes". The Doctor 15:03, 29 May 2020 (UTC)


Fair enough, just thought leaving bugged images make the page unsightly. Mclarenguy22 18:05, 29 May 2020 (UTC)

Your episodes

Are your episodes still being repeated? They look as though they've been pulled from More4.--Launchballer 19:05, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

That’s a real shame, I was emailed by the Countdown team a couple of weeks ago which confirmed the dates of my Series 78 finals repeats on More4. They may have been pulled because a contestant in them does not want them to be repeated.

I see repeats still going at 12:10 am and 12:20 am on More4 according to Radio Times guide, but then Catsdown repeats are planned too. I didn’t bother replying to the email when I received it though. Anyway, I’m confused and have no idea if they’ll be repeated now. Mclarenguy22 22:22, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

They seem to be gone from the 6+pm broadcast but not (for this week at least) from 12+am, and are not on the schedule from next week.--Launchballer 23:52, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
They are only repeating the finals apparently Crispy 09:59, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
Oh, good, thanks. Are these still scheduled for 2-3 and 6-10 July? I was emailed that they’d be shown on 3, 9 and 10 July. Mclarenguy22 18:36, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
That ain't Crispy.--Launchballer 18:07, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
