Episode Cats1, billed as 8 Out of 10 Cats Do Countdown was broadcast on 2 January 2012, as a special episode marking Channel 4's 30th anniversary. As part of the celebrations, Channel 4 decided to "mash-up" well-known shows. This was also the first of two pilots taped before the show was officially commissioned.

Rachel Riley was, as ever, the arithmetician. The Dictionary Corner guest was Joe Wilkinson, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

It was then followed up by a rematch, 8 Out of 10 Cats Mashup: The Rematch, broadcast on 24 August 2012.

NOTE: In Round 1, Sean may have meant CHEEP rather than CHEAP. Similarly, Jon may have meant PEACE rather than PIECE.
