As from 2008, Countdown takes a four week break in the summer. In 2009, the break will be 27 July to 21 August.

In addition to all of the +1 channels, most programmes are repeated just once:

S4C is currently (5 Oct 2009) four programmes behind C4. S4C transmissions will be interrupted on Friday 13th November for coverage of racing from Cheltenham, after which it will be one week behind C4.

Until recently, Countdown programmes had two further repeat showings
