Episode Cats43
Episode Cats43, billed as 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown Series 7, Episode 10 was a special episode broadcast on 17 July 2015, as part of 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown Series 7.
8 Out of 10 Cats regular Sean Lock and Acting Team Captain Sarah Millican were the contestants, along with Johnny Vegas and Rob Beckett who were their teammates, while Jimmy Carr reprised his role as the host.
The match saw Sarah Millican, with the assistance of Rob Beckett, winning by 39 – 37 in a 7-rounder and they won a Countdown bunk bed.
Rachel Riley was, as ever, the arithmetician. The Dictionary Corner guest was Vic Reeves, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
Just before Round 5, the teams took part in a drawing competition of a model who stripped naked in front of them and had to draw him as best as possible within 55 seconds. Originally, Rachel was supposed to be the model, but after Jimmy "took the piss out of her dancing", an anonymous male came out and did it instead. Jimmy ruled that Johnny had the best drawing, so five points were awarded to his team.
NOTE: In this version, both players' declarations were allowed, although points were only awarded for the best answer. Also, in Round 4, Sean did not show to Sarah that he had done his method the same way as hers.
