Rematch

From Countdown
Revision as of 00:26, 26 June 2009 by Drawoh (talk | contribs) (Heat games with a rematch in the final stages: five more)

Rematches are rare in Countdown but do occur from time to time. Following the introduction of sudden death conundrums to prevent games ending in draws and the more recent disappearance of special episodes, the only way for two players to meet twice is to play first in the heats or the finals, and then play again in either the finals stage or a Championship of Champions tourmament. The Supreme Championship also contained some rematches, including at least one from an earlier Championship of Champions event.
