Episode 4473
From Countdown
Special episode 24 was broadcast on 2 November 2007, as a special episode commemorating the 25th anniversary of the first televised episode of Countdown. The first ever episode was shown directly before the game, and notable celebrities were chosen to select the letters and numbers, rather than Conor and Chris selecting them themselves.
Chris Wills played Conor Travers, with Conor Travers winning 69 - 58. The game is notable as being the only 12-round game in Countdown history
