This page was assembled from the skeleton data of Mike Brown's Countdown Page, and the recap written by Paul Thomson.

Round one

Round 1 of this game baffles me. The selection appears to spell a valid word that's already in exactly the right order (heck, it's even been used as a conundrum before), and yet neither the contestants nor DC notice?? The only explanation I can think of is that BREASTING was not allowed at the time of this special, but was added to a later dictionary. JohnnyCanuck 23:40, 2 June 2010 (BST)

Seems a possible explanation. Even though the transmission dates of S4 and 3781 were only a year apart, there was a change of dictionary from NODE to ODE in that time.--Drawoh 23:53, 2 June 2010 (BST)
