Revision as of 00:25, 6 November 2010
Episode 2874 was broadcast on 2 November 2000, and was a special game to celebrate Countdown's 18th birthday.
Mark Nyman and Gyles Brandreth played Jo Brand and Damian Eadie with Mark and Gyles winning 50 – 46. There were no Dictionary Corner guests in this episode, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
NOTE: The original target for Round 4 was 197, but Richard made an "executive decision" that it was too easy, and ordered that the button should be pressed again.
