The losing guy from today looked like a clean shaven Wagner from X Factor.

Dear Director, a few more close up shots of her sitting on her stool would be nice. ![]()

Why, oh why do they have such unsuitable guests these days? "Campo de Gino" is not English, and clearly is useless at finding English words... so why the hell have him on? The first time he could only come up with a three letter word, when the contestants had managed 7 or 8 letters was mildly amusing. Every other time after that it is just plain irritating!
And similarly why do they keep havung Jeff's many sporting friends on the show, when most of them clearly have no aptitude for the game? Jeff might be interested in their sporting chit-chat, but I doubt much of the core audience is. No wonder the ratings for the show continue to decline. Such a pity. |

I have also been disappointed with the guests in recent weeks. What's happened to old favourites like Geoffrey Durham, Rik Wakeman and Tom O'Connor?

Scrap it and bring back good word games like Crosswits with Tom O'Connor. I think c4 are afraid to drop it for some reason

I recall Rick Wakeman saying that he didn't think he'd be invited back after his comments about Carol's treatment. Geoffrey Durham is the biggest mystery - he was Countdown's most frequent guest but now he's been away for about five years.

Yep. When she announced how 'mad' she was, I groaned. After her first round, I brought mute button into play. I'm comfortable with my choice.

Since it schedules just before the most contrived and repetitive programme ever (Deal or No Deal) it seems very strange for you to pick out Countdown. I'm also surprised that since you clearly do not like it that you find enough time to watch it and so be in a position to comment on Rachel's dress sense - I might suggest you get a life and turn the TV off if there is nothing you want to watch on, or as an alternative you could pick another programme scheduled at the same time that you don't like and post on that thread about how it should be taken off air. |

Oh dear, you always know that someone is a prude when they use the words "I'm no prude".
