Series 68 (also known as the Countdown 30th Birthday Championship) is the current series of Countdown. It was filmed in late 2012 and early 2013 and broadcast between 7 January and 1 March 2013 to celebrate thirty years of Countdown.
Over 200 past contestants applied to take part; 41 were selected by producer Damian Eadie to participate. Nine preliminary games will narrow the field to 32 contestants, who will then compete in a straight knockout for the championship.
On 21 January 2013, the show moved premises to MediaCityUK in Salford, its third permanent home in its 30 year history.
