There was me thinking that I was the only one perving her today!

Oh Rachel is just gorgeous tanned or not. Gorgeous skin, gorgeous girl and gorgeous figure....what is not to like?

She's even got rid of all those awful mumsy shoes she was wearing.

As a farewell to Summer I think they should do a special homage to summer edition. I wonder what Rachel should wear ????

I thought that they would have got rid of Carole's bad dress sense when she left!

OMG!! do they really have to be THAT short??

I suppose, if they are trying to increase the viewing figures...they are going down the right road!

I guess if they're trying to attract more of Jeff' Soccer Saturday crowd over to watch Countdown then having a scantily clad blonde ain't going to do any harm!

Yes. Yesterday's show was the first one recorded after a filming break of almost three months.
Last week (14-18 Sep) was recorded 17th June. There was a long break, don't think it was that long though as I understand a certain number of shows have to be already 'in the can', otherwise we'd almost be watching it live now!

I'm sure continuity takes care of things such as contestants growing long beards and such apparently from one show to the next!

This week's shows were recorded on September 7th. I make that almost three months.

Has Rachel taken to wearing some kind of lift and support knickers recently? Her arse was always a bit flat but these days it seems to be busting out like Vordermans used too..

Anyone know if there are plans for recording Countdown in HD?

At present I watch the show recorded from an analog signal, so it would make a pleasant change to see the letters and things much more clearly.

Good to see Jeffery getting through today. He seems to be a lovely guy and very cute. Hopefully he will become an Octo Champ.

If his opponent had had the brains to multiplying the 4 & 3 and then adding them on at the end of her numbers solution, she'd have been out of sight at the conundrum.

So our summer break doesn’t correspond to the filming summer break? That seems a shame. It would be nice if we both stopped at the same point for summer.

If his opponent had had the brains to multiplying the 4 & 3 and then adding them on at the end of her numbers solution, she'd have been out of sight at the conundrum.
Oh yeah! I never spotted that. I wondered why Rachel looked so hesitant before writing it down. Now I see why!

It was a great show today!

I simply do not find tanned women attractive at all.
Racist.

That's a bit harsh, doing the numbers in studio conditions is very very difficult. I doubt very much it was a case of 'lack of brains' more just running out of time to fully explore that particular method.

My wording was unduly harsh. I meant no offence by it.

No worries mate, I just thought it was worth emphasising how hard the numbers rounds are under studio conditions (for most people). If you try something and it gets close, do you write it down (legibly) which takes up a lot of time, or try something different? (which might make you forget your first route should you need it!)

I think Rachel is lovely and I don't know why some people criticise her clothes so much... she's a young girl after all and I didn't hear complaints once Carol 'big mouth' Vorderman had been botoxed, got fake hair extensions and enlarged boobs and then started to wear revealing dresses towards the end of her stint!!!

Rachel's made the Daily Mail today!!! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz...red-dress.html -- 130 comments from readers!
