Very sorry to hear that he is EEASCDDE. I watched the show as often as I could and he always seemed to be a very nice man.

Ye i couldn't believe it when i heard it.
He wasn't old by any stretch at 61.

I wonder though after it going on for so long with the same people will they just stop it. I think they should it wouldn't be right.


FreaK_BrutheR dont forget to post one!!!

doubt that's gonna happen. i heard on the news that C4 have yet to make a decision whether or not they will be airing prerecorded episodes with RWhiteley as the host. i think richard would've wanted the show to continue himself though. God grant him eternal rest.

Yeah, what a shock, RIP Richard Whiteley
He had a truly unique manner, and a unique style - I wonder what will happen to all those novelty ties
I'd like to see Countdown continue, and I'm sure Richard would too.

Hi All,

This is the first one I've done and it took a while. It certainly took a lot longer than the great RW and his clock would have given me. I only came across this page yesterday. I think it's a great idea to have this page.

I think this works:

((9+6)*(8-1))+100+75=280

colin300

ye you got it. Now u have to post one yourself!!!

strassenwolf

Oh, so that's how it works. Well sorry about the delay.

75, 10, 7, 6, 5, 2

Mmm, I don't think so! That's a 10 not a 100

I think this works

10(75+8+5) + 3 = 883


I haven't seen the program in a long time, but I often thought they could give extra points if you were able to use all six numbers, e.g., if you did:

10(75+8+5) + 6 - 3 = 883


Does anyone know?

Tar.Aldarion

no extra points for using them all.

the tribute to richard whitely was on today

colin300

ye i grabbed a few minutes of it.

He certainly had some odd jokes especially the words he liked.
