Olivia Lloyd-Potts, nee Olivia Lloyd, first appeared on Countdown on 13 February 1985, beating Sheila Alder 52-35 in the 28th heat of Series 6. She went on to win four more games before being stopped by Helen Grayson. Olivia's five wins were enough to see her return for the finals as #4 seed, where she beat Robert Healan in the quarter-finals and beat Helen Grayson in the semi-finals, 'avenging' her earlier defeat in the heats. In the final against Darryl Francis, Olivia put in a spirited display, but was overwhelmed by Darryl's expert word knowledge, losing 37-69. Olivia's performances were enough to see her return for Championship of Champions II, but she was beaten in the first round by eventual winner Clive Freedman. Olivia returned to Countdown one last time in 1996 for the Supreme Championship, but was beaten in the first round by the then-unbeaten Don Reid.
