Welcome!
Welcome to The Countdown Wiki, a community project to build an encyclopaedia about Channel 4 television programme Countdown. We currently have 18,258 articles.
For new users: We hope you enjoying reading our articles. Everyone can contribute to them! To edit an existing page, just click the edit link at the top of the page you want to edit (although you can't edit this page!) To create a new page, enter its name into the search box on the left and click "Go". If the page does not already exist, you will be given the option to create it. If you are not familiar with the wiki system, don't worry about formatting and syntax - just enter the text you want and other people will polish it for you. Be bold in your editing - any mistakes you make can be easily undone, and we have very broad concept of Countdown relevance. If you want to practise editing, take a look at the sandbox.
There is no need to create an account, but it only takes a few moments and some features are easier to use if you log in. You can create an account here.

Many of the existing articles are only outlines and are just begging to have more details added, so go ahead and expand them if you have anything interesting to add.
