Calendar Countdown Main Series was the first eight transmitted episodes, broadcast from 19 April to 7 June 1982, consisting of an eight-player knockout format akin to a modern Countdown series finals stage. The final was held in two games, all tapes of the second game are believed wiped. Contestants had no visible nameplates; therefore, some of their names may be spelled phonetically here.
