Junior is a variant of Countdown. Whilst Hyper is an extended version, Junior is a pared-down version of the game.
Letters game
Letters selections contain seven letters rather than the normal 9.
Numbers game
There is only one large number (10); smalls are 1—9. You are given 5 working numbers rather than 6, and the target is 11—100.
Conundrum
Answers are seven letters and are generally common words.
