Goody bag
From Countdown
The goody bag is the colloquial term for the prizes given to contestants after they have appeared on Countdown. The prizes are different depending on whether the player won a game, or even made the Series finals. The current goody bag includes:
- Countdown board game
- Countdown electronic game
- Oxford Dictionary of English - which one depends on whether the player wins a game or not.
- Countdown T-shirt, blue with a small white and yellow Countdown logo on it.
- Countdown coaster (drinks mat)
- Susie Dent's The language report, a book analysing the English language.
- A teapot for players who win at least one game.
Prizes for finalists are usually trophies of some sort, such as an engrave silver tray or a cut-glass trophy. Series winners get the full Oxford Dictionary of English.
