Talk:2020 COVID-19 hiatus

I’ve just been emailed by Countdown today that they will show my 2018 repeats on 3 July, 9 July and 10 July, but on More4 and not Channel 4. I think these are the Series 78 finals. Mclarenguy22 15:10, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

Which means they would need to start that series on 2 July, a Thursday. I know what I want to see Monday to Wednesday.--Launchballer 16:30, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

Only Hewer/Riley episodes will be repeated, Damian said in Aptochat a couple of weeks ago. Yes, that would be 2 July to 10 July except the weekends. Mclarenguy22 17:13, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

Of which there are exactly three unreleased Nick Hewer episodes (two specials and the one skipped).--Launchballer 17:22, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

S32-33 are Jeff Stelling, I'm afraid. The Doctor 18:05, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

Maybe another series finals from 23 June to 1 July and the unaired episode on 22 June? Probably not.--Launchballer 00:20, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

Not seeing this on the schedule from next Monday.--Launchballer 23:15, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

Appears to be showing next week? [1] The Doctor 23:28, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

According to my EPG and that link it's on this week at 12:05am only and not at all next week, which has wound me up, because my mental health failed that month and I literally can't remember anything in May or June 2018.--Launchballer 23:41, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

Well, Phillip says above that his episodes will be repeated so has that changed?. --Andy Davis 17:10, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

Name

This afternoon, following Rachel pronouncing Covid as "Cov-id" rather than "Co-vid", I Googled to see which the correct pronunciation was. In my searches, I found this article, which says that "acronyms pronounced as words go upper and lower, eg Nasa, Unicef and, now, Covid-19". I believe this to be the spelling we should be using.--Launchballer 16:34, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

I have never heard of NASA and UNICEF being in title case. The Doctor 16:49, 16 September 2020 (UTC)
